Companion suggestions for tea rose hedge?
Comments (14)Maurizio i am not a very good planner. My idea for a hedge is because is have overbought ; ) i will try to work the smaller teas i have in beds and borders but these are the larger ones i am thinking i might use in a hedge: Monsieur Tillier Mrs. BR Cant Arcadia Louisiana Tea Niles Cochet Mrs. Dudley Cross Mme. Lambard Vintage lists these as a '3' in growth habit so i'm sure they will go big. These others are classed as a '2' and shown to be head high in the catalog but i suspect may go bigger? My Duchesse de Brabant that has been in the ground from a 3 gallon pot since only last June is 4x4 in a dry year. Angel's Camp Tea Clementina Carbonieri Duquesa Frances Grate's Tea General Gallieni Souvenir de Pierre Notting Rosette DeLizy Louis Phillipe Mlle. Franziska Krueger I have found some mistakes in my thinking so this is a good exercise for me! ex. Gen. Schablikine i thought was a large tea but Vintage shows only waist high. The suggestion for V.t. 'Atropurpurea' is excellent. i have one in a pot now and have been wondering what to do with it. It is bullet proof in my conditions. Sometimes i fail to see the obvious. Thank-you. Randy i want to clarify-Lavender loves Maui-in fact some folks farm it here. It is only me that it doesn't like ; (...See MoreI need a GREAT yellow rose.
Comments (26)WOW!! what a list!! Thanks EVERYONE. I will be spending the next week or so researching all these great ideas. Thanks to those who mentioned Midas Touch. I had him in Okla. and really liked that rose. You've mentioned numerous ones that are new to me--haven't kept up with the roses lately. If I can remember, I'll try to post my selections to let you know which ones we decide to try. It is going to be a challenge: only about 8 - 10 inches of soil on top of a solid rock hill. I will bring in compost and get dirt from her horse lot to try to build up a decent bed. Wish us luck. Weldon...See Moresuggest a rose for cutting, but not hybrid tea?
Comments (8)Kristin, The best dark wine/purply Austin we have grown is William Shakespeare 2000. We are putting in two more next month. You are probably aware that Austins typically shatter kind of quickly, but it is our fav in that color range, and great in bouquets. It will get taller in your zone than it does in ours, but it doesn't have those "octopus legs/arms" that Falstaff and Othello do. We are going to move our two Intrigue roses to the back or side yard (similar color), because, while they are breathtaking and smell wonderful, they are not as floriferous! I don't know if you can find Wm. Shakespeare 2000 locally, but it would be worthwhile if you could! Have fun! :0) Phyl...See MoreYellow Shrub Rose Suggestions...Please help.
Comments (8)Graham Thomas will defoliate from black spot. Mermaid is for a 40' run of fence. Carefree Sunshine is very resistant and blooms like crazy. I don't know if it would reach 10', maybe with a tripod support. You might need to keep the hips clipped off to promote strong growth, as it sets a lot of large fruits, but this is a minor chore. It is an attractive leafy plant. Mrs. Dudley might reach 8' (HollySprings?) and should be good for you, but I don't grow the old teas myself. Baby Love is one of those yellow roses that can be totally resistant or can totally defoliate depending on what strains of black spot are around. Another one like that, and a showier yellow shrub, is Flutterbye....See Morezjw727
