'Reina Elisenda' rose Reviews & Comments
HelpMeFind's future is in your hands - Please do not take this unique resource for granted.
Your support of HelpMeFind is urgently needed. HelpMeFind, like all websites, needs funding to survive. We have set a premium-membership yearly subscription amount as low as possible to make user-community funding viable.
We are grateful to the many members who have signed up so far, but the number of premium-membership members remains too small for us to sustain the current support and development level. If you value HelpMeFind and want to see it continue we need your support too.
Yearly membership is only $2.00 per month and adds a host of additional features, and numerous planned enhancements, to take full advantage of the power and convenience of HelpMeFind. Click here to start your premium membership..
We of course also welcome donations of any amount. Click here to make a donation. Donations of $24 or more receive a thank-you gift of a 1-year premium membership.
As far as we have come, we feel HelpMeFind is still in its infancy. With your support we have so much more to accomplish.

Despite my love for the mid-century varieties and love for orange and orange-red in particular, I never even saw this rose in person until I started growing it in Florida in 2019. Really happily surprised/on the cusp of shocked to see how clear and bright and truly orange the color is! This IS the one that introduced the color gene! Health is vastly better than I expected, too. Vigor is excellent---wide AND tall. And back in the 70's was reclassified as a GR for a few years and could have stayed in that class for sure. Maybe I had low expectations for this one and my near rave review is overstated. All I can saw is this one is one of my best here on the beach in NE Florida.

Thank you very much Krimrose. It appears the translator of the 1969 reference made an error, but translations are fraught with error. Before making these alterations, may I check my computer's translation please.
'Nejenka'. (parentage: 'Turke's Rugosa Samling' x 'Kordes Sondermeldung'). Amaranth pink. cupped, 10cm bloom. 57 petals. fragrant. foliage dark green, shiny. Bred 1955 by Klimenko. Introduced Kratkie, Moscow, 1972.

We've deleted the incorrect translation of 'Nezhenka' out of 'Kordes' Sondermeldung' and find we had the correct 'Nejenka' file all along. All seems OK now. Thanks for your insight Krimrose.
