that Henry Ford rose is a newer one and not the yellow one hybridized in 1927. I still hope that at least one or two branches come up, so that I can try some cuttings with it. The problem is the color of this hybrid. Most yellow tea roses will bleach in our strong sun; yet those with strong colors grow only in zones 6 or higher. At any rate I appreciate your efforts.
