Falstaff as a climber - happy in zone 9b
Comments (28)When I saw your first picture and read that it climbed, despite not being a climber, I wondered about mislabeling. The color was more like my Austin Benjamin Britten, which is a climber and has a wonderful fragrance, but is not deep red like my (much shorter and less robust) Falstaff. I recently bought 6 (!) bareroot roses from Home Depot (serves me right!) labelled as Ballerina which turned out to be Kordes "Pink Perfection". Grrrr.

I prefer their quartz colors. I also went to their showroom and I think their quartz is gorgeous....See Moredoes anyone have plan ideas w/ 2-mother in law suites
Comments (117)CEM TOSA, I appreciate your experience and knowledge. I’m sure your home will be beautiful. I will do the best I can with mine. We are not rushed at this time to build. If we proceed with building now, I do realize the prices/economy will not allow the size or everything I love. But to dream and plan is the most enjoyable thing to me. We will see in a year or two what will be then....See Moreamandahugg
