Pink Mystery

12 years ago

Pink Mystery is a hybrid Stellata mirifica bred by Louis Lens and grown here for a few years. At one time, it was offered by Ashdown and Sequoia, but it now appears to have been lost here. I'm hoping to find someone here in the US who still grows it as I'd LOVE to grow it again and use it in my breeding. Might anyone here have it still? Thanks! Kim

HA!!! I have a variety of pink mystery roses in my yard, but none of them qualify as the Pink Mystery you are looking for. Mine are all listed as NOIDs (which loosely translates to: Susan messed up and shovel pruned the label).

Sorry! Got Lens 'White Surprise,' but that's a considerably different kettle of fish.

You know, I also still have your Irises from Sacramento!

They look like Alyssum to me, and it does self-seed in my garden.

Reminds me of Agalinis which is blooming now near me (but mine is Agalinis purpurea and I'm not sure this is a match for that species).

I grew a Cl. American Beauty collected from a very old plant in Beulah, Colorado many years ago. It's the one Sequoia sold for a number of years and the one Ashdown sold. It could repeat once established and when spring was long and fairly stable. When it ended abruptly with the high heat beginning over night, it stopped flowering. If yours is happy and the climate is right, it could well be the right rose. Kim

Thanks Susan, I've had a bunch of those myself! Jeri, if nothing comes up before, the VCRS plant sale in September will probably be the next time we'll intesect, if that works for you. Thanks. Kim
