Does anyone grow Rose a Parfum de L'Hay
Comments (16)I can't understand these reviews. Perhaps mine is not a true Parfum de L'Hay? All I know is that it is my favorite rose -- outstanding in every way: fabulous fragrance, vigorous growth, first to bloom and last to stop blooming. Finally, don't tell anyone, but the petals are super amazing to eat! I make rose pastries to die for. And I cultivate all the most fragrant roses: Gertrude Jekyl, Papa Meilland, Mme Isaac Pereire, and many more, yet this is the star of the show. "Old Rose" fragrance too, not just funny fragrance. Since you say it does not repeat, mine must be something else, so I should re-name it. Very dark red, and loaded with thorns....See MoreDoes anyone grow John cabot rose?
Comments (29)I have always pruned John Cabot when I prune my other repeating roses. It never occurred to me to prune him like a once bloomer. Mine have a spectacular bloom in the spring and continue to bloom throughout the season. They seem to always have color. Some years they get a light pruning and some years I really give them a thorough hard prune, depending on how out of control they have gotten. If you prune yours now to control the size and shape, you won't lose any blooms....See Morehow does brigadoon rose do as own root? Anyone growing it in the south
Comments (4)Thank you so much BenT!! I didn't realize that pic is from your garden, this is the one that put it on my must have list. I have 2 roses on fortuniana and both are sickly looking. Munstead wood, Molineaux was planted in ground about a month ago. I have poets wife from david austin(not sure what they graft it on) right next to Molineaux(fortuniana) and it is robust, healthy sending numerous new canes. Munstead wood, Molineaux do not have not much growth on it. Munstead is a one stick wonder. I had heard such reviews about fortuniana root stock. I lost one that was also on fortuniana, Huntington. All were from K&M roses. Also, even though the plant graft is above soil level. Fortuniana is sending out side branches. I will take a picture and post it. I don't know what I am doing wrong as there is not one person out there that does not speak favorably of their rose grafted on fortuniana..Richmond VA...See MoreDoes anyone grow Apricot Candy rose ?
Comments (17)Apricot Candy is one of my favorites: 1. extremely disease resistant, 2. super vigorous, 3. reliable winter hardiness almost to the tips, w/o protection (zone 6), 4. heavy bloom with quick repeat, & 5. spectacular bloom in all stages, up to petal drop. And, its petals resist quilling, which quilling, other than on a heavily petaled bloom (50+ petals), irritates me to no end. Apricot Candy is counted among the top 10 best roses I have ever grown so far...that's among all moderns, like: HTs, GFs, FLs, MINIs, MINIFLs, MOD & OGR CLIMBERs; even including: Hybrid Rugosas, English Roses, and all the OGRs. BTW, my top ten roses, not listed best to last, just scrambled together, are: Marie Pavie Quietness Snow Carpet, aka: Snow Pavement, Scheekoppe (Gr.) Evelyn (black spotter 😩, but breathtaking bloom 😁) Quick Silver Apricot Candy Dee-Lish Bliss Parfuma Moonlight Romantica (grown as either HT or Climber, but gets some black spot) Pinkerbelle runners up (2): Jacques Cartier, aka. Marchesa Boccella (grown on multiflora, and stand back! otherwise it limps along in my garden own root). Princess Charlene of Monaco, some black spot Other than Evelyn, Princess Charlene of Monaco, and Moonlight Romantica, all the others are essentially black spot proof, no spraying for disease required here in Pittsburgh, zone 6.
