We got this rose from John Greenwood of Greenwood Daylilly Farms. His nursery is near the old J&P breeding facility in Somis, CA. He was visiting one day in the 90's (?) and saw the bright single flowering plant on their trash pile. They were getting rid of it as they did not want to introduce another groundcover rose that would compete with Happy Chappy. He ask if he could take it and try it out. He really liked it and when asking his staff on what they should call it they said it was like it was on fire. Incendio was it's name from then on. John brought it us and we have found that it hold it color much better than Happy Chappy in the heat which tends to go pink. Great ground cover rose!
