favorite peach/coral/apricot colored rose??
Comments (15)I ordered another Whiskey Mac, as my other one may have died from the severe winter we had. I was recently informed that they are also require a bit more care, but I have to agree that they are well worth it! If you have ever had the pleasure of smelling a Whiskey Mac rose, you'll never forget it's name. The scent is truly mystical with a fruity/floral headiness that is not overwhelming, but very strong and delightful. One flower filled half my garden with it's scent and I had to wander around until I found the source. I was truly amazed at how much one lone rose could emmit so much perfume. It didn't even smell like a rose, it was more like a basket of freshly cut fruit and freesia. YUMMM!...See MoreYellow rose that changes to orange then deep pink
Comments (19)Sounds like Pinata to me-that's what immediately came to mind on reading your post. The link below contains some pictures of my pinata, showing bloom development/color changes as it ages. I happen to like Pinata a good deal, even though it is a slow grower, but I knew what I was buying when I purchased it-I'm sure it was quite a 'surprise' when yours started to bloom!

Comments (65)The Oranges I had bloomed ok...Livin Easy was a bloom machine from the get go without any fertilizer used... But I'll try potassium for better health... Only location I have that gets the least sun is out front. That location gets sun from sunrise until 2pm... Other location in the back closest to house gets sun from noonish until sunset... Farther out into backyard some locations gets sun from early morning until 5-6pm other locations early morning sun until dusk.. No trees around our yard or house... Nice orange shade on that Sweet Promise 2007 rose you pictured Strawbhill! :-) This post was edited by jim1961 on Sat, Jun 28, 14 at 13:44...See MoreYour most favorite fragrant roses from Roses Unlimited?
Comments (105)I prefer receiving roses from RU in early spring since they come with buds. I have been ordering yearly from RU since 2011, and this week I received 6 biggest gallon own-roots with blooms on April 27, 2022: Below is Firefighter with 2 blooms, this is my 4th own-root Firefighter (doesn't last long in my zone 5a), but I keep ordering since one bloom can perfume the entire room. This is the first time I grow in a 7-gallon air-pots (thanks to Hoang Ton's setting an example with his amazing roses). Below is CLIMBING Crimson glory received from RU with 2 buds (I grew Crimson glory hybrid tea before, it was too small for my zone 5a). Firefighter's scent is many times stronger than Crimson glory (nice but scent doesn't last long in the vase): Summer Sun also has a bud to sniff, it's a fresh & nice scent like Louis Estes. Yolanda d' Aragon also has a bud coming from Roses Unlimited 4/27/22. My other 2 orders: Ardoise de Lyon and Kiss me Kate Climber don't have buds, but very tall with BIG roots. This year is the BEST in size and quality coming from Roses Unlimited. RU uses Mills Magic mix for fertilizer. The ingredients have changed for the better. Below is an excerpt from Mills Magic Rose website: "We’ve removed the fish meal. We’ve removed the biosolids. We’ve added feather meal and Citrus peels. We’ve kept the alfalfa meal, cottonseed meal, bone meal, and blood meal."...See Moresara_ann-z6bok
