Anyone in inland SoCal grow Crown Princess Margareta and Carding Mill
Comments (16)I have Carding Mill own-root now and after two years it's a foot high and might have had one bud that I took off. I had it before on root stock, I think from Austin, and it exploded and bloomed all the time and did not frizzle as I remember Monsieur Tillier and Clementina Carbonieri did that I planted nearby. It's hotter and drier now but I think this is still a good rose for a hot inland climate, especially if you can give it late afternoon shade. I hope that my dwarf will grow and give me a bloom or two before I die but I'm not counting on it. My only hope is that this rainy winter might have given it more of an incentive to thrive, although it had plenty of water before then. I don't grow the other rose, and in fact don't have any of the newer Austins. If I were you I would give Carding Mill a try, only not own-root, unless I just ended up with a dud. Edited: I cross-posted with you pat, but your rose is gorgeous. Sorry about the blackspot. My former one never had any disease and neither does my present dwarflet....See MoreFinally my Carding Mill is blooming!
Comments (10)EBharvey - I'm in Northern NJ (US) but I got one bloom about 2 weeks ago that was very pink with a little apricot only in the center. I have heard that Carding Mill will do this! I don't mind it, I like not knowing what color the bloom will be until it opens. Also, I did recently fertilize lightly so I'm not sure if that has anything to do with it....See MoreI had no idea Carding Mill was so beautiful!
Comments (22)I think we can safely blame(or actually thank) the fall weather for Carding Mill’s giant globe. Many of my blooms are looking different from the norm right now. Below is one of my potted Cream Verandas. It’s normally very peach or cream for me. I just looked at it, and it’s WAY pinker than what I usually get. I like it. It’s just about dark, so I hope you can still see the colors. I know Yves Paignet always has large frilly blooms, but mine are WAY larger than normal. These things are HUGE! I hope Carding Mill will give me a few more of those incredible globes before the spring flush. Lisa...See MoreCarding Mill??? I don't think so!!! Anyone know what she is?
Comments (8)I got Darcy and Carding Mill from Wayside. I already have Tess. My Darcy is pinkish red but not the same shade as Tess. Carding mill is def orange peach. They were selling lots of Darcy's toward the end of the sale so perhaps its Darcy? My Tess is own root and huge, 10ft but I keep cutting it back a little but it still grows right back....See Moreandreark
