| Hi Tnangela, Very nice crosses! You have some good ideas on what to cross, too. I think that Ballerina *could* be a diploid, and Peace is a tetraploid, so you might end up with triploid (mule) seedlings from that cross. Which is OK, as not everyone likes to get seeds from their plants. The rest of them are definately tetraploids, though. May I offer you some rose links? |

| Oh, the cross I have this year is Wanderin' Wind x Crested Sweetheart. Crested Sweetheart is bit difficult to find pollen on, but I think it will be well worth the trouble. |
