Beautiful! And, yes, those dark areas in the second photo are Tina either reverting or sporting to Grandmother's Hat!

She does it fairly often, Kim.

Interestingly, 'Larry Daniels' ( which is a slightly different shade of pink) never did this.

Also, our original "Grandmother's Hat" (which I suspect came from the Huntington/Boutin "Altadena Drive Pink HP) commonly stripes (as you know) while the Sequoia Grandmother's Hats never do.

And only "Northside Pink" has ever sported to 'Tina Marie'.

Is anyone offering this rose right now? It seems like someone should!

I doubt you will ever get any of these US found things there. Now that Week's has screwed the pooch and done their deeds with RRD, no one wants to touch them.

At one time, there was a suggestion that it had been found in Oz, and was around, there, under a different study name. But I see that is gone from HMF, so perhaps it was not the same rose.

What Roseseek said.

It's a damned shame, but NO ONE in other countries is going to be lame enough to import roses from the U.S.

In fact, though there has been no appearance of RRD in my "neighborhood," I don't send cuttings to anyone these days.
