An update on my earlier comment on 'Early Blush' rugosa. A personal communication (August 25, 2010) to me is as follows: "I spoke to Gretchen [Wheen] this morning re ‘Early Blush’ Rugosa - she found as a seedling at her nursery and propagated it there."
We now need communication from Mistydowns Nursery to clarify the 2003 reference.

It seems like we should credit this rose to Ms. Wheen.
The Mistydowns reference sounds like it's probably the same rose, but the backstory got jumbled. The Johnsons may have a different rose of the same name, but it seems more likely, especially given the timing, that they had Wheen's rose, but either they weren't sure it was the same rose, or Mistydowns got the story confused.

Does anyone have any information on the breeder of the rugosa 'Early Blush'? Johnson or Wheen. The date also varies from 1992 to 2007.
