This is probably AKA Brindabella Purple Prince, but the wholesaler made an error in the codename on the web page, so that is unclear so far.

Thanks Michael. The code name (GRAappl) seems to be OK to me, but the patent on Sunfire's page is quoted as PP28,364 whereas we have it as PP26,364.

HMF's is likely correct. Wholesale pages are often... "mostly accurate" *cough* :]

Breeders of GRAppl, GRAapr and GRAsalm are Sylvia E & John C Gray. This is most important for accuracy and appropriate recognition. Please adjust at your earliest convenience.

Thank you Mr. Gray.
Accuracy and appropriate recognition is always first and foremost in our minds.
You haven't answered our question on the parentage of Brindabella Pride? I'll just repeat it here for your convenience:
Was the rose you mentioned MACkati x Deep Secret - 'Blackberry Nip' or a new and separate cross?

I understand the code of GRA has long been used by Doug Grant of New Zealand. Accordingly we have deleted the codes of GRAsalm, GRAppl, and GRAapr, GRAze and GRAsuper from your roses.

We have one more piece of confusion. We have a Breeder account for Silvia Gray, who is listed as "Owner of Brindabella Country Gardens Nursery". She is also listed as the discoverer of 'Brindabella Pink Bouquet'.

Then we have your Breeder account for John C. Gray, who is also listed as Owner of Brindabella Country Gardens Nursery. You are listed as the discoverer of 'Brindabella Blaze', (and now the breeder of 'Brindabella Jewel', 'Brindabella Pride', and 'Brindabella Rainbow'.) We do find it difficult to go back and rearrange who was the actual breeder. You might like to have a look at the references for 'Brindabella Blaze .

We have altered your nursery listing ownership from John Gray - to Sylvia E. & John C. Gray. We hope this is satisfactory to you.
