Probably far too soon to make any sort of statement at all about this rose, but as it seems to be being sold in every Bunnings store this year, and I have one, here it goes. Bought as a potted bareroot from local Bunnings store in June/July this year (Aus winter 2017), so its not old enough to say anything much about yet. I dont use fungicides or sprays at all, so its survival of the fittest here. Has been a bit of blackspot on old post spring leaves, so its looking a bit naked legged right now, but new growth is continuing, and it has remained completely mildew free. Flowers are pleasantly scented, but not overwhelmingly fragrant ; no balling, and they dont seem to be affected by the weird hot/cold weather sudden spurts of rain that make up a Melbourne spring. Seems to be a slow but steady, twiggy/shrubby sort of grower. Bloom colour is more mid pink with blue undertones than dark pink.

Does the label have a breeder code on it? If it was bred by Rankins, it would start with RAN.

Rankin’s Roses are part of a group of nurseries who call themselves collectively, Rose Introducers of Australia. They almost never disclose the codes, although Treloars are very good with the codes. Rankins and Landsdale are difficult with codes.

Hi Patricia I have come up with this info from PALATINE ROSES in Canada
Rose Name Mother and Child I can only presume that this is a variety name because Trademarks CANNOT be variety names ie name of the rose (as above)
Other names JAL25-3-12, JALaroma
Breeder Jalbert 2015
Rose names in Australia are mainly badly used ie genericised trademarks...its all quite farcical
Your list of nurseries is lets say Interesting

Thank you joekoel. I have merged ‘Mother and Child’ with ‘Mothers and Children’ JALaroma. Appreciate your detective work.

I seem to have lost the original tag (rather annoying, I usually keep them). But it didnt have a breeder code; thats always the first thing I check before buying a new release rose, so I can look it up here!. As the advertising really emphasised the disease resistance, thought I would give it a try, even if I couldnt get any other info.
Should be going to Bunnings in the next few days so I'll try to get a pic of a tag for the record.

how can this be recognised as Mother and Child when Rankins claim this as a trademark . Trademarks are not variety name

Ooops I uploaded a photo of Brad Jalbert's "Dianne Loomer" on to the page of another one of his roses, Jalaroma, by mistake. Sorry!

Thzt’s quite okay johnm99 - it is a bit hard to concentrate these days isn’t it. However it is very easily fixed. Just open the photo/ click on REASSIGN / PLANT/ type in the correct name....and follow the prompt. You will see the correct rose name change at the top after a few seconds.
I’ll do it if you need.
