I don't really see why this hybrid would have "chocolate" in its name. It looks like it's made out of strawberry jam.
I think the color and the substance of the blooms more than makes up for its lack of fragrance.

It's a good thing I live on the opposite coast from you Susanne! I might have to arm wrestle you for my own plant!
Kim your explanation of the name makes the most sense. The unopened buds do look like little drops of chocolate.

Four flowers on a first bloom seedling is what I would call good growing. Congratulations
