Thank you Pierre,
I don't know if I am related to the
Poulsen hybridizer. My grandparents
came to California from Denmark
in the early 1900s. When I became
engaged to my wife in 1970 , her
parents had 7 Poulsen Bedder roses
along their driveway. I thought that
was kind of special. I became inter
ested in bonsai and also miniature
roses shortly after we were married
and have retained the interest in both.
I have grown self pollinated miniature
roses from seed and have several
which have good color and form.
I have one that came out of the
miniature rose Stars and Stripes
that is hot pink with red stripes and
very little white. Very disease resistant
and good root system, and glossy
leaves. I also have a little website
that I made about 6 years ago where
I show how to make Cinderella roses
into bonsai. I will post the web site
later for those that might be interested.
