'Eureka ®' rose Reviews & Comments

Pretty good rose. It didn't suffer winter damage like other St Patrick descendents here did. It blooms a ton, even when over 90-100 degrees.
The form is meh. The color is nice and warm. It blooms a ton, and the plant architecture is fat and stout. I have not seen disease on it. I would consider this a superior replacement for 'Peace' in terms of usage (obviously not in symbolic sentiment).

DESCRIPTION
Botanical/commercial classification: Rosa hybrida/Grandiflora Rose Plant.
Varietal denomination: cv. Meizambaizt.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
The new variety of Rosa hybrida Grandiflora rose plant was created in France by artificial pollination wherein two parents were crossed which previously had been studied in the hope that they would contribute the desired characteristics. The female parent (i.e., the seed parent) was the product of the cross of the ‘Macivy’ variety (U.S. Plant Pat. No. 8,362) and an unnamed and unreleased seedling (non-patented in the United States). The male parent (i.e., pollen parent) was the ‘Wekamanda’ variety (U.S. Plant Pat. No. 9,591).
The parentage of the new variety can be summarized as follows:
(‘Macivy’×Unnamed Seedling)בWekamanda’.

Alain Meilland has stated to me that the seed parent is the Bailey's rose Centennial.

Sorry Zach, i don't understand. At the moment we have
Seed: Singin’ in the Rain (syn Spek’s Centennial, MACivy 1994) x seedling
Where does Bailley's rose Centennial come into it.

Centennial is Singin in the Rain x (Seedling). It is a 100% sister to Yellow Submarine.

That seedling parent of Centennial is one of Will Radler's that he shared with Ping to breed with.
