Hi!
Saw your question today, sorry! YES! There is good news it did survive winter 2010/2011 (see last foto)!
;-)
Greetings from Germany, Arno

If I were considering Blanc Double, I would choose this instead; similar, but fuller. I have not seen it set hips.

I think its the same problem with all full blooms, - open pollinations will not work here.
But if you pollinate it, it should set hips very well.
I'll try this year. :-)

Did You manage to get this rose pollinated and having good hips/seeds? Or do You already have seedlings?

EXCELLENT photos of persica! I don't know where you got the seed but as I'm sure you know it is very rare. Thank you!

Thank you for your kind comment, the seeds are from a friend of mine, who had been my fellow student in biology for years. He comes from an area not too far away from Taschkent and after we talked about that specimen, he said he would bring me some seeds to germany, if he visits his family - and if he finds a plant. He did! - And not only for one season, for several, so I could grow them up by trying & reading lots of infos, the two articles from Jack Harkness included. Thats - in short - the story. I will bring further fotos if possible.

Wonderful!
I look forward to learning more about this one. I am working with a repeat blooming descendant now. There are relatively few roses adapted to desert climates. It seems this one holds potential for drought tolerance.
Thank you

Dit ist ja herrlich!
Do you know if any of the recent hybrids bloom for more than a day?

Hi Paul! :-)
Yes some Hybrids of Warner (going to be released) Moore (Seqouoia Nursery in California, but they CLOSE end of April 2008, you have to hurry!) are twice blooming or even recurrent blooming. Jim Sproul is also breeding recurrent flowering hulthemia roses and writes about his crossings in the Rose Hybridizers Association Forum. For example here (where I also write sometimes).
http://www.rosehybridizers.org/forum/message.php?topid=9419&rc=143&ui=1808397568
And perhaps in a few years my own hybrids will be recurrent blooming. But my main way is to cross seasonal flowering roses into original hulthemia material to get healthy plants from the beginnig. OK, - of course I also will try some little crosses with F2 to F4 or F5 Hulthemia / Rosa Persica Hybrids, this year. But - as I look for real challenge - not too much. :-)
I think you should call Moore's Sequoia Nursery, if you live in the states. And ask Jim Sproul, perhaps he can give you material too.
Here is a copy pasting of all helpmefind listings of hulthemia hybrids:
F1
Berberifolia hardii Euphrates Hardii Hulthemia hardii Hulthemosa hardii Nigel Hawthorne Rosa hardii Rosa x H. hardii Rowley Rosa x hardii The Hardy Rose Tigris Xerxes F2
Persian Autumn Persian Flame Persian Light ™ Persian Sunset ™ Roses are Red TG2698 (RNRS Trial Ground No.) Vox Humana F7
LCxSL X I89-2

OK As I can't edit the description table for that rose (don't know why), I'll post some infos here, as its really important to know more on that crossing.
Its my own crossing from May 2007 where a few dozen seedlings derived with one, presented here, that already flowered this year in May 2010.
There is a thread for this crossing / breeding line on the RHA Forum site:
http://www.rosehybridizers.org/forum/message.php?topid=30065
The flower is of a salmon colouring with a small orange base at the petals! The reverse of the petals is more of light pink, the upper side more of light yellow ... .
For me it was interesting to see, that the yellow colour of Golden Chersonese is not completely inherited in the descendents. I supposed this, as there seem to be different (at least two) traits of yellow, - one light yellow and one deep yellow. Sometimes they are mixed - as in Golden Chersonese, I supposed (see also answer to Robert below its the thematic of the maternal inheritance of traits in some few examples that might play a role here ... .)
The deep yellow trait seems to be inherited only via maternal pathways ... if one takes deep yellow influenced roses as mother plants, - and not as pollen parents like here (so for deep yellows its like a chromoplast inheritance, not a classic mendelian inheritance).
It will be also interesting to see how the plant further develops, still its a pretty dense bush (only once flowering in spring). Its not blackspot resistant, but mildew resistant. ...

Arno,
Did this one set hips for you? I'd love to see some updated whole-plant photos of it if you have any.
