Slightly OT - perennials from Hortico?
Comments (3)Thanks for the responses! The peony and clematis I was interested are not currently available at any close-by sources for me. I guess the main thing is that since I'm going to be paying a certain amount in shipping for the roses I want, its more cost effective to go on the high end - that is, its a certain amount for 1-4 plants, for 5-9 plants, etc., so in a way ordering 4 plants or 9 plants is kind of a better deal than ordering 1 or 5 plants. Anyway, I'm not convinced, I just thought I'd ask for any experiences with their perennials. So, thanks again!...See MoreHortico Roses Rootstock?
Comments (8)I have ordered a number of roses over the years from Hortico, including Augusta Luise. I've always been pleased with their plants, and haven't noticed a big difference in the size of Hortico plants and those that I've ordered from Palatine. I don't think the Augusta Luise from Palatine (they are calling it Augusta Louise) is quite the same as the "real" AL. I've noticed a difference in color and petal count in the AL from Palatine compared to Hortico's AL, which seems more like the original Tantau plant (also called Augusta Luise (trademarked) on Tantau's site.

Comments (2)I got the same message sometime back - Nicole said it would be December - maybe - before she would know if I would get my roses. Got my Palatine order and am planting those. Since they seem to have had a good crop, maybe we will all get lucky! Judith...See MoreHortico roses are here!
Comments (9)Hi rosecanadian! How exciting! I looked up pictures of the roses and they all look stunning! I think I may have Electron. Most of the roses in our garden are unamed because my dad planted them thirty years ago and lost the name tags, although we have found some of them. If I do have Electron, then it is a very floriferous (I hope I spelled that right ; )) rose. It is a beautiful bush with glossy dark green, disease-resistant leaves and tall, straight stems adorned with beautiful electric pink blooms. It has a lovely, strong, fruity scent and is very healthy and vigorous. Here is a picture: I'm sorry if this is not Electron, it looks like the same rose to me or maybe I just need some sleep. Enjoy your new roses! damask_rose_5 : )...See MoreTerry Crawford
