Here is another brand new (2004 germination) 'Baby Love' seedling that is shrub-sized. It is from another favorite cross of mine: 'Marmalade Skies' X 'Baby
Love'. Last year I had several nice seedlings from that cross, so I repeated the
cross extensively and came up with 845 seeds to plant this past Spring.
This rose is the best of the lot. What I like about it is its floriferousness
and very clean foliage. I have found that 'Marmalade Skies' will give about 10%
seedlings with an excellent amount of bloom, but you have to cross it with
something clean, otherwise you will have lots of problems with powdery mildew.
