I haven't heard, but I have visited the Orangeburg's Edisto Rose Garden and it is truly wonderful!

No, but I've had considerable correspondence with Jay Hiers, who seems like a very nice, and very dedicated person.

We sent him plants of a couple of Noisettes that the Edisto garden didn't have, and we did.

I REALLY wish I could go to this event, but the other end of the continent, in late August, is pretty much out of the question for us.

If any go, however, I would love to hear about it. And I bet Darrell Schramm, the new Editor of the Heritage Roses Group "Rose Letter" would LOVE to run a report on the event.

I don't know that I would wrap the rose around the fence. I think I would just pull the canes as horizontally as I could and tie them to the fence with that stretchy green tie that you can get at any home store. Training in both directions would be very pretty if you can and have the room. Sometimes the Teas can take a little time to get established. They can grow slowly for a couple of years and then they just take off. On the other hand, some of them are very vigorous from the beginning. Mrs. Dudley is one of the ones that took a little time in my garden. By the third year they should be growing and blooming like crazy. At least that is when I noticed a big difference in my garden. Climbers often take at least three years to get established and bloom well. I have all of the perennials and shrubs that you listed in my own garden and I love the way the roses look with them. Perennials, shrubs and trees were my first love, as well. In addition to the ones you listed, you might look at the hardy geranium "Rozanne". It does well in the heat here and blooms from early spring until frost. jbcarr, I lived in Columbia for 15 years before moving here. I still miss it. Except in August :-) Carol

Thank you all for responding! I will be making pilgrimages to both RU an Ashdown. Mostly I've been buying from VG, Sherando, and Chamblee (because I've made a lot of cross country trips). I've got1.5 acres, some of which is given to pecans trees, but the rest is open and willing. The house is brick, with lots of spots for climbers. I'm going to concentrate on Teas and Noisettes and anything else a too tender for VA (I do grow some here, but they are always a bit iffy). How do bourbons do for you? Here in VA they are bs magnets. Any other suggestions--soil gardens to vsisit, good nurseries for companion plants...? I close on the 15th and will have a proper look around when I go down for the signing.

Congrats! Enjoy your Anniversary celebration. When we visited RU several years ago, we were fortunate to be invited to Pat's personal garden. Breathtaking! I live in Blackspot land, Fayetteville, NC. All of the 6 or 7 Austins were very prone to BS and are no longer with me. What does best for me in my no spray gardern are the teas and Chinas, and Buck roses. The teas get quite large for the most part, especially my favorite, Mrs. B.R. Cant---10' oindiameter. Mutabilis will get at least 8' in diameter. Busks that perform well are Prairie Sunrise, Polonaise, Quietness, Prairie harvest (though she fades in the sun). My Earth Song and Pearlie mae are quite small but I have high hopes for them also. Other garden stars here are Belinda's Dream and naga Belle. Love them both. Cresupule is a wonderful BS free Noisette climber. Another good climber is the red Dublin Bay.

Any blooming rose gardens on my trip?

A place I've wanted to visit is in Jackson, Ms, the reconstructed home and gardens of Eudora Welty. The book, "One Writer's Garden, Eudora Welty's Home Place" shows pictures of how the reconstruction has been done. The book indicates a number of old roses have been replanted in that garden, which were original to the home when Eudora and her mother lived there. I'd love to see Elizabeth Lawrence's home and garden in Charlotte, NC, Wing Garden, mostly because I am a big fan of hers. In South Carolina there is a topiary garden, Pearl Fryar Garden in Bishopville, that I've wanted to visit as well. It seems amazing from what I've seen. I agree with Ann above about visiting the Vicksburg, MS civil war memorial. The cemetery, the grounds and the exhibits are really interesting to see. The wonderful hydrangea gardens in Birmingham, Al, Aldridge Gardens, are worth seeing and should be blooming if you're going soon. I am sorry I never made it to Bellingrath to see the rose gardens there. The botanical gardens in Huntsville and Nashville are worth seeing. The Hermitage, Andrew Jackson's homeplace and gardens, is worth a trip if you're in Nashville. I first saw a chestnut rose in that garden there. The Natchez Trace is beautiful, I think. There is also a beautiful garden, or at least was 30 years ago, south of Shreveport, Hodges Gardens. I saw a lot of beautiful camellias at that garden; I don't know what it's like now, but worth checking into if you're going to be in Shreveport. I've always wanted to see the beginning point of the Mississippi River up in Wisconsin. I hope you have a wonderful trip; it's one I'd like to take as well sometime. Take care, travelling solo!

Jerri's link is the better one, because the HRG has the two page flyer link.
On the ARS page, there's a calender, and when you cursor over the highlighted dates, it tells what's happening and where.

First, don't y'all just love the picture of Old Grey Cemetery on the first page of the brochure.

There is no charge for the day.
Additional speakers include Bill Patterson from Roses Unlimited and Marily Young who has now been in the southeast for maybe seven years and who grows a passel of roses.

We are definitely going to be there. I think we'll try to visit Riverbanks bot garden on the way down the day before.

I'll definitely be taking notes.

Since lunch is on our own, maybe we can arrange to eat together if we can get a list together.
