Elinor (Holmström, 2006: Rugelda x Astrid Lindgren) is my first, 'home-made' rose hybrid. It's a crossing between a rugosa and a floribunda, which hasn't been registered yet as it needs some further assessment, but so far it looks promising! The scented roses are medium pink with a yellow eye and they change to a light apricot pink shade as they age. The shrub blooms throughout summer and has been named for my daughter.

Åh va fin den var!!! Superfina blommor. DOftar den? Du får säga till om du har plantor över av denna skönhet, den skulle jag gärna ha i min trädgård.

Elinor var så vakker. Astrid Lindgren er ei sterk og vakker rose men til snitt duger den ikkje. Kanskje di rose er bedre på det viset også. Lykke til med den.
Beautiful rose. I'm very impressed that you are making your own hybrids.
The rose looks lovely. How clever and patient to cross a rose.
I love this one! It's such a pretty pink! You asked me if this is early for our first snow. Yes, it is. I am very sad about it.
