Ok, so if there was a species or a hybrid you guys and gals would recommend for rust resistance, what would it be?

I've never seen rust on any of the Gigantea hybrids.

Hello,
I have couple rose plants at my home. Some planted my departed father, some I planted.
I cant identify all but I sure all is before 1995 and maybe 1990. Except a two who I get at local store.
Roses is Westerland (climber, shrub / orange), Don Juan (climber / red), Casino (climber / yellow), Swan lake (climber / white), Maria Callas (Hybrid Tea / pink).
Also I'm not sure about couple more so I will post pictures for identification.
I'm little confused (newer doing this before, I want to start hybridizing roses) about right for seeds like open pollination and crosspollination. Can someone explain me can I use this five roses for open pollination and crosspollination? If I good understand, patents expires after 20, 25 years so that mean I can use this seeds from this roses?
I'm new in this filed and need help what I can and what I can't do.
Thank you.

I don't know of any legal restrictions on using roses for breeding. The first thing you should check, before you pollinate a rose, is whether it sets hips. If it doesn't, pollinating it will usually be a waste of time. (I made that mistake when I started!) Swan Lake has no recorded children, so I wouldn't try it. The other four all set hips and have been used for breeding, both as seed (female) parent and as pollen (male) parent.
Good luck!

As far as I know, plant patents don't affect breeding from a plant.

Does anyone know if 'Princesse Impériale' is sterile? I only see one unique descendant for it which is a sport. I breed roses and have a 'Souvenir de la Malmaison', but I would like to use its sport 'Princesse Impériale' as well.
