Photos reassigned. The many options of the same are sometimes quite confusing to our members

Thanks, Peter!
not only "gorgeous" but also popular for its unusual rhubarb scent.

How does it behave in the rain ? I fancied Giardina and Jasminia but some people have posted that they ball up and go to mush in the rain because they are so crowded with petals. We get plenty of rain where I am :-(

It's doing reasonable well in rain - at least compared to many other highly fragrant roses, that tend to have rather soft petals.
In normal years (not so recently) we have plenty of rain as well in Northern Germany - ideal conditions for a strict selection process on disease resistance and rain firmness.
Stay safe, Thomas

In Southern Oregon (USA) close to Medford on trial fields of former KORDES agency NEW FLORA.

Thank you. Has it been released in the USA? I don't see a nursery listed as selling it there, nor in Europe.

No, not yet - still in trial for the US, but disease resistance was too poor for humid conditions in Northern Europe.

Beautiful rose! I've been thinking of purchasing it. What do you feed your roses to make them grow so beautiful?

I believe this photo is made by Chris from Newflora and originally posted on Gardenweb.

It is similar but I am sure it is a different photo. In RosTom's photo, the label at the bottom is missing and there are no weeds.

A different photo, but of the same plant. One might agree, that this one is taken just a short while after the other photo in the URL. The 5 flower-buds in the center are just a little more developed.

Gibt es diese Rose nicht bei Kordes in Deutschland? Oder unter einem anderen Namen.
Is this Rose not available at Kordes in Germany? Maybe named differently?

No, so far available in US only. I currently give it another try in our German trails since it would be great having a climber of that color in our assortment. First evaluation under Northern European conditions showed borderline disease resistance only and not enough vigor to make a climber. We'll see...

Thank You for explaining and replying. Might this rose be suitable as a (solitary) shrub in Europe, instead of a climber?

I'm actually more concerned about level of disease resistance under our humid conditions. Guess we need at least another one or two years of evaluation before we'll make a final decision on introduction in Europe.

But here in Italy Quicksilver stands a good chance of doing fantastically well...also in France, Spain, etc. Kordes roses are very popular here.

I am reading GardenWeb closely. The posted photo made me go back and double check.
I will never post unless I make sure it's legit.
Judging accuracy of the photo by the presence of weeds? This is something new in plant identification :)

All my photos are legit - they have weeds...
