Is Dr Huey rootstock still used?
Thanks for any advice.

I'm not from Ross Roses, but yes they use Dr Huey: it works well for the Adelaide plains and other sites with alkaline soil.

Is HMF being spammed? I'm getting page after page of comments from an "unregistered guest" pending review. Are these really legitimate comments pending review? It's most annoying.

I'd say so (spam). I tried to click through past it all but gave up as there seems to be hundreds of them clogging up the site. Let's hope they sort it out soon.

It seems like a Denial of Service attack. It should be cleared out when North America awakes. Please excuse the inconvenience.

Yes, someone thought it amusing to spam HMF. We have removed the spam posts and we are researching the source.

DA says its parentage is 'Tuscany superb' , rather than 'Tuscany'.

Did you see my comment to your photo? Which edition of "English Roses" do you have? Can you please check pages 25, 26 and 91 of this book? Apparently, David Austin says there that the pollen parent is 'Tuscany'.

It's 2020.6 edition.

I have David Austin's English Roses (new edition), 1996. On page 25,26 and 83 it lists the parentage as "Dusky Maiden" and "Tuscany". (mine is the Australian edition, by the way.)
PS. Is Chianti mentioned on any other page? It might be worth looking at what it says about the parentage on some of the other pages as well, to see if it's consistent.
Cheers.
