Hi everyone,
What can you tell me about how Rose du Roi grows? Anyone have pictures of this bush in the garden? All I can find online are close ups of the flower.
Vintage says it is "compact, low, and suckering"... but I am too new to roses to really know what that means.
How tall is "compact" in an OGR?
Can Rose du Roi be pegged horizontally to get more blooms? Or are the canes too stiff... i.e. they only grow up and down?
Does suckering mean that this rose will continue to send up new flowering canes, or do you have to remove the "suckers" the way you remove suckers from a grafted fruit tree?
Is this a rose that only puts roses on the last couple inches of cane?
I love the way this rose smells and I'm trying to figure out where to put her in my garden.
Thanks,
KMama
