For the rose 'Eddie's Crimson in the photos section there is a caption of mine without a photo. Can you delete the caption with a question mark (no photo)? I have corrected the problem and got the photo with the caption added to the HelpMe Find website. Thank you in advance for correcting my error!

'Williams' Double Yellow' is in my mind the best hardy, blackspot resistant, double-yellow, once-blooming rose. It spreads invasively as Jack Thomas points out which is cause for concern. For me it looses the lower half of its leaves by the end of summer to a leaf spot disease (possibly alternaria leafspot) but this by no means is cause for concern as the plant is still ornamental. It produced hips for me last year which was unusual and they ripened quickly and turned black as in Rosa spinosissima which further leads me (height of plant, density of growth, hip shape and color, resistance to blackspot) to believe that this rose has growth characteristics more closely related to R.spinosissima than to R. foetida. In my limited experience, I have not seen rose hips on any form of R. foetida that I have come across.

Infertile?
I assume you've tried?

I would like to complete for your records the parentage of Milwaukee's Calatrava, a rose introduction of mine.
'RADell' = [ 'RADfert' ('RADmom' x 'RADdad') x 'Jude the Obscure' ]
'RADfert' has the same parentage as Knock Out® and Double Knock Out® but is a different sibling.

I believe this photo may be misfiled. I do not think that it belongs with 'Marchesa Boccella'.

Hi Will!
Are you saying this because the shape looks wrong, or because JC doesn't set hips? I was going to ask that question to everyone....whether or not it sets hips.
Thanks!
Tony

Tony, I tried a few crosses in 2022 on JC, and they all aborted after about 2 months. They looked promising for a while though…
