Are these the plants you crossed, or did you make these hybrids? They are very nice, I'm partial to greens. If you have a Yungho Gelb Canary I'd love to get a stem.

Both were purchased from friends.

I did cross these two plants together. Only time will tell.

Thanks

Looks like a neat cross. Are you looking for more reds or yellows?

Hi Royal..

I actually have quite a few reds. They were just not blooming for me when I took that picture. I did have one blooming.. Phal Sogo Rose "Joy" that I did try to pollinate also... You can see it here

I meant from the cross, ie. breeding goals. Are you hoping for or expecting reds from that cross?

Sorry.. I misunderstood your question. Actually, I am hoping for orange or blush colored plants that are hopefully fragrant.. But I will take what I get.. that's the fun of breeding...
