'Red Galaxy' rose Description

My HMF:

HelpMeFind's future is in your hands - Please do not take this unique resource for granted.

Your support of HelpMeFind is urgently needed. HelpMeFind, like all websites, needs funding to survive. We have set a premium-membership yearly subscription amount as low as possible to make user-community funding viable.

We are grateful to the many members who have signed up so far, but the number of premium-membership members remains too small for us to sustain the current support and development level. If you value HelpMeFind and want to see it continue we need your support too.

Yearly membership is only $2.00 per month and adds a host of additional features, and numerous planned enhancements, to take full advantage of the power and convenience of HelpMeFind. Click here to start your premium membership..

We of course also welcome donations of any amount. Click here to make a donation. Donations of $24 or more receive a thank-you gift of a 1-year premium membership.

As far as we have come, we feel HelpMeFind is still in its infancy. With your support we have so much more to accomplish.

Breeder's notes:

Although the parentage of 'Red Galaxy' has to be listed as unknown, I theorize about its parentage in my rose blog: www.mikesroses-salem.blogspot.com
In particular, visit the PAGE titled "German seedlings". The PAGE can be accessed using the tabs at the top of the blog.

Patents:

Patent status unknown (to HelpMeFind).

Parentage:

Unknown × Unknown

Notes:

The distinguishing characteristic of this rose is the spotting to be found on the periphery of its blooms, becoming more pronounced toward the darker edges of the petals. The redness, the darkness, and the light spots certainly look like a red galaxy of stars (see Google Images).
