Max Graf James H. Bowditch, Pomfret Center, Connecticut, USA, 1919, Hybrid Rugosa, Probably 'Rosa rugosa' x 'Rosa wichuraiana', 2' x 8', soft rose pink with golden stamens, single blooms 2" in diameter, delightful fragrance, once: spring only for many weeks, hardy to zone 4, ARS ---. Sets few hips. Long trailing shoots that sometimes self root. Shade tolerant and care free. "Its origin is obscure; according to [Wilhelm] Kordes, it was found in a garden in the United States. From its appearance, being a trailer with leaves suggesting 'R. rugosa', it was assumed to be a hybrid between that species and 'R. wichuraiana'; we may consider it to be the first ground cover rose. And it was soon found to be exceptionally hardy." "If the parentage has been correctly assumed, it is a hybrid between two species whose resistance to blackspot is high, and therefore of potential value to breeders." "'Max Graf' was not at first sight valuable to breeders, because of infertile pollen and few hips. Wilhelm Kordes tried to breed from it despite these disabilities, and he reported that over many years he collected only three or four hips from a large plant. In 1941 he raised two seedlings, one of which resembled 'R. rugosa', and died of frost in its first winter. The other was 'R. kordesii'; it set seed freely, and was very hardy. But there was hidden in its cells a third gift, still greater: it proved compatible with modern roses, having increased its chromosomes from the fourteen of its parents to the twenty-eight of Hybrid Teas and Floribundas. The key was now given to admit modern roses the combined qualities of two of the healthiest wild roses, namely Max Graf's parents, assumed, but with some certainty, to be 'R. rugosa' and 'R. wichuraiana'. 'R. kordesii' breed true from seed, and has therefore been accepted as a species, although I should have thought it more consistent of the authorities to denote it a hybrid species." Some Kordesii hybrids are the Hybrid Teas 'Silver Jubilee', 'Dortmund', Hamburger Phoenix', Leverkusen', Parkdirektor Riggers' and 'Ritter von Barmstede'." (Harkness, 1978) Other breeders who have used 'R. Kordesii' are Ralph Moore, Dr. & Mrs. Brownell and Felicitas Svejda, of Canada who introduced it into the Explorer Series of roses.
