Something else Ive notice with what Im pretty sure isnt Typhoon despite it having been sold as. It does the 6 sepals thing every other bloom as do many of its children (which confirms heridity of the trait...now to combine with crested).

Anyone aware of Typhoon often having 6 sepals? Or a non fragrant modern rose that starts yellow and turns a deep red?

Pretty flower, grows well....does seem a bit prone to blackspot and leaf scorch (or something similar) here in Sydney, will complete defoliate to bare sticks and then pump out new growth around the end of summer.

Although I'm not 100% convinced what I got from Treloar is Typhoon (they only seemed to sell it that one year too...), it's far more saturated than the pictures on this site and the fragrance isn't strong. Whatever it is has produced children with far better health than itself.
