Breeder's notes:
Alba hyb. the most promising seedlings from so far raised. Sets a new line. I was very lucky that in the F1 generation this rose is repeating. Rose shrub strongly upright. This soldier's appearance it's it characteristic. 'Polonica' works very well as a mother, but the most interesting crosses are arise when she is a father parent. 'Polonica' is willingly passing desirable qualities; frost resistance,fungal resistance, abundance of flowering with the preservation of flowers on one level. 150cm x 50cm.
