Why is it a Hybrid China? Wouldn't that mean it would repeat-flower? Also wouldn't that mean it was not hardy above z6 or 7? Just ordered from Palatine Roses...

Hybrid China tends to be a ragbag term, used by some (and disapproved by others) for roses probably bred in the 19th century, which clearly aren't pure "Old European", and usually not repeat-flowering (presumably first-generation crosses with repeat-flowerers). Some unidentified survivor roses here (zone 9b) get thrown into that category.

The first generation of crosses of Chinas with Gallicas/Damasks etc in the 19th century inherited the once-flowefing characteristics of the European Roses. These were named Hybrid Chinas. Only subsequent crosses with repeat-flowering resulted in occasional or regular repeat. These later crosses were called Hybrid Perpetuals.

I just ordered from Palatine today. I am thrilled to get into their crazy sale. How do you like Duchesse de Mont? I am in zone 6a. It will get morning sun 4+ I hope it is happy. I would like to know if by bushy, does it mound or have a rounding growth pattern. Does yours? Thanks!

Lax growth, almost thornless. Tolerates shade.
