I think this variety has great breeding potential. It produces a lot of hips that turn a beautiful orange in the fall. I am collecting a few to see how fertile they are. Hopefully they will germinate in the first year instead of having to wait 2+ years like many hybrid spins make us do. Very healthy and hardy in Iowa so hopefully we can get some of these traits to carry forward.

It's an easy pollen parent and produces a percentage of repeat flowering seedlings when paired properly.
I haven't had much luck with seed the few times I've tried it.

I believe that Julie Overom is the breeder of this rose.
I too have seedlings from this rose and am glad someone has listed it in HMF so that lineage descending from EGS1 can also be listed.

Thanks for adding pictures of it. I got my first blooms from it last year but have no pictures to contribute - hopefully this year. I will try to Switch this over to Julie's name as I want her to take full credit of this wonderful rose.
