'Lupo ®' rose Description

My HMF:

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.

The new variety of rose plant of the present invention originated from a controlled crossing in a breeding program of two distinct parents during the summer of 1995. The seed parent was the result of a crossing of an `un-named seedling` and `KORlima`, a non-patented rose variety. The pollen parent was the result of crossing `KORmarie`, a non-patented rose variety and the offspring of an `un-named seedling` crossed with `KORgosa`, a non-patented rose variety.

Parentage:

seed:	Unnamed Seedling × Lilli Marleen
pollen:	Bonanza ® (shrub, Kordes before 1981) × [ Unnamed Seedling × Robusta (Rugosa, Kordes, 1979)]

Notes:

Dedicated in Laupheim where there is an annual Rose market.
