Does all rose seeds produce different variation?
If I good understand, all seeds is different then mother, maybe that is less them one percent but it is different?
Does this correct? Thank you.

The simple answer is yes - all seedlings that come from parents that are hybrids themselves (ie all garden varieties) will also be hybrids, and are genetically unique. This is the case even if the mother plant self-pollinated its flowers. Even a seedling that looks identical to the mother to us is in these circumstances a new, distinct rose.

As I understand it, this is what separates the offspring from garden varieties from species roses, which if self-pollinated produce seeds that come true to the parent. So a wild R. Glauca for example, if it self-pollinates will produce offspring that "come true" as more R. Glauca, but if it was pollinated by a different wild species, or a garden variety, then the offspring are new hybrids themselves that are genetically different to the mother (and father) plant.

I hope that answers your question.

Yes, I get first bloom B) and that seed is from open pollinated seed and it is first.

Also I have now 10+ new plants. This 10 new is results from a couple of hundreds seedlings. I need to make more observation on both case.

Last year I don't cross anything because corona, long story...

I am fascinated by the appearance of climbing sports out of bush roses. Are there any actual photos of this happening?

Can I legally hybridize using patented parent roses? What are the rules about that?

No laws regarding breeding with (outside of genetically modified, ie the "blue" rose Applause), just can't propagate (ie cuttings and budding to make copies of)

What makes some rose breeds sterile? Is there really no way to create a hybrid of a sterile rose? How can I tell (other than by trying to breed with it) if an unknown rose in my garden is sterile? Or if it can be crossed with a given other breed?
