I have a new variety being introduced by Rogue Valley Roses for 2010. It is a large shrub/climber called 'Janet Inada'. Take a look at it on the RVR web site: 'Janet Inada' for more information.
Paul, maybe you have noticed me lately in the RHA Forum ? As I I've bred this year the 1st time also with 'AD', I took a look in the descendent list at HMF to get an idea what the result could be of 'AD' x 'Sympathie'. So I still have your 'Westerland' cross there really great. I was also impressed of the result from crossing 'AD' with 'Bonica'.
Paul, your 'Janet Inada' has 'Westerland' as seed parent. Is 'Westerland' a good seed setter/seed parent in crosses for you in your climate? I can get one here, and may use it as such if you recommend it favorably.
George, Westerland is a very easy seed parent for me, yes. It accepts most any pollen and produces copious seed. My experience so far indicates that it has much potential as a breeder. Why it doesn't appear in more rose pedigrees is a mystery to me.
