Roots nicely, but watch out for mold while rooting, very susceptible. have found some more seeds and they are starting to germinate.

Did you find any crested seedlings among your trials?

This rose has remained completely free of rust and mildew (the two, worst fungal issues in my coastal climate) as well as black spot (seldom an issue here) the nearly eight months I have grown it here. It flowers regularly and reliably and I find the scent to be quite good, much stronger than the description indicates. All around, it is a beautiful garden rose with tremendous cresting. Quite an accomplishment!

I am pleased with it too. Very clean, the flowers petals are a lovely, silky pink and all with fertility and decent cresting. Not much fragrance here, and it suffers from a bit of downy mildew/dieback. Very vigorous.

Pretty clean, surprisingly so! Nice cresting as well, makes for an interesting cut flower
