Congrats, it must be terribly exciting! I'm highly interested in growing roses from seeds too, could you perhaps have a link to that sideshow?

Here you go, oath5. I will post a pic when I see first bloom. You can do it too!

An update on my roses started from seed.

Congratulations...very pretty..do they have any fragrance?I sprouted and planted 48 in a seedling tray the wind blew the clear lid off and I lost them all..:-(

Thank you, NF. Yes they do have a fragrance that is sooooo nice. :)

So sorry to hear of your misfortune. If the wind in IL is as here lately, those seedlings could be in Jersey by now. :(

When did you plant these seeds?

Mark,

The seedlings that are showing first bloom were planted in early March. All unique and very pretty in my eyes (a little bias I am sure!) and fragrant.
