'Summer Blush' rose Reviews & Comments
HelpMeFind's future is in your hands - Please do not take this unique resource for granted.

Your support of HelpMeFind is urgently needed. HelpMeFind, like all websites, needs funding to survive. We have set a premium-membership yearly subscription amount as low as possible to make user-community funding viable.

We are grateful to the many members who have signed up so far, but the number of premium-membership members remains too small for us to sustain the current support and development level. If you value HelpMeFind and want to see it continue we need your support too.

Yearly membership is only $2.00 per month and adds a host of additional features, and numerous planned enhancements, to take full advantage of the power and convenience of HelpMeFind. Click here to start your premium membership..

We of course also welcome donations of any amount. Click here to make a donation. Donations of $24 or more receive a thank-you gift of a 1-year premium membership.

As far as we have come, we feel HelpMeFind is still in its infancy. With your support we have so much more to accomplish.

Would this be the same rose Heirloom is selling as 'Red Blush', also bred by Seivers and also 'Maiden's Blush' X Hamburger Phoenix'?

I just bought and planted two 'Red Blush' from Heirloom. I would like to be sure I know what I have.

Doesn't seem so.

Just looking on Rolf's old website (via the waybackmachine...it takes snapshots of websites for archival) and they are listed separately.

A new Alba hybrid with a red kordesii rose, raised by Sievers in Germany and introduced in 1988. It has strong-growing, arching stems to 5 ft (1.5 m). The flowers are bright red, fully double, and almost Gallica-like, produced only in early summer with a strong sweet scent.
Hardy to -30°F (-34° C), Zone 4.
