André, what happened to some of the seedings you had posted in 2013? You have overwritten them

Many of your roses say they were bred in 2014 but not planted until 2018.
Was this some sort of experiment you were trying?

It was all purely by accident but it turned out to be a good experiment.
They were delayed in getting sowed because I didn't have time to actually plant them. I put them in my storage refrigerator without any moist medium. Some sprouted but 90% did not. When I finally had time in 2018 to work on them, I split the bags into 3 groups and would add moist vermiculite to a group every few months. This helped me control the amount of seedlings I was getting and thus eased their burden on my time. Unfortunately many are gone now as they got decimated by an extremely bad case of aphids. Of over 2000 seedlings, I have maybe 10 of them left.

How many seedling do you plan for each year?

I have gotten upwards of over 1500 before when I put them all in baggies with moist medium. Way too much for me to handle. So aiming for about 250-500 seedling at a time is usually the goal

André - I note that all of your roses are listed in UPPERCASE. The standard that HelpMeFind uses is Upper and Lower case. Would you like to change the names of your named roses please? I can do it for you if you like, but obviously would prefer you to do it. Many thanks.

my apologies, I didn’t realize there were rules on the case of letters. Many of the names are in actuality code names. Is it okay if I only change those those that are varietal names and not the code names.
