Not sure yet if this one is a keeper or not.....but I can say that I was so excited that I danced around my greenhouse for awhile ;) I' m by no means a pro, but thought she was a beauty.

Trish Ann, is the hybridizer.
Lovely Lady is the mother plant and crossed with pollen from Marbach, Adeline, & an unknown.
Lovely Lady & Marbach is from my German import collection, both brugs introduced by Monika Gottschalk, a premier hybridizer from Germany.
Adeline, is just a beauty that both Trish Ann and I love. Hybridizer, I think is Ludger Schneider & Delisa Harvey. Not only is her color and form a site to look at, but her name is so much like our Mothers, Adel, that we wanted to use her pollen on our first attempts at crossing.

Seedling is a fast, vigorous grower. Double blooms with curled upper skirt. Color is a peachy pink. Shape & size is similar to Lovely Lady.

Just getting over the flu, so not real sure about fragrance.

Special Note:
This was a double crossed with another double and in most cases will not produce a keeper. Trish Ann & I didn't know this fact at the time of pollination.
