The Dussi that I took pictures of is own-root and young. Although my picture is messy, I can see it has a distinctive foliage among other roses I grow, which I do not recognize in the photos of Prosperity...

I might have commented too quickly. The own-root Dussi I grow first showed its new leaves with a kind of teardrop shape (is there a name for that ?) but now they are larger and looking more usual so I went back to the Prosperity pictures for further examination. I could actually see the teardrop shape on carmenbcdc's photo, with the tip of the leaves wider and rounder. Also there is a yellowish green hue at the base of the petals, combined with a blushing center when the bloom is opening that I completely recognize. Frenchtearose site says it was introduced by Mr Branchi in 1998.

Can we know approximately where and when "Dussi" was found? Somewhere in Europe, I gather?

If it was introduced by Branchi, then 'Dussi' is from Italy

most of his foundings were from Umbria / Latium. Branchi was a world reference on chinensis when it was not fashionable. I found ‘ found roses in Sweden, and I am Italian... i bought my first roses at his nursery in the first years of the 90’s , when he still had a more generic old rose nursery called Rose e Rose emporium, and back then he already had ‘Prosperity ‘ . Annamaria Sgarabottolo the ex owner of vivaio la campanella with whom i have collaborated for a decade , stated they are different, my idee is as i said before a Prosperity ‘ on steroids.

Thank you for this most fascinating account. Might "Dussi" be a seedling of 'Prosperity'?

What else did Signor (I hope I have that right) Branchi find?

Look up the nursery Branchi on this website (kept for reference), then the tab "Plant Introductions"
