Good, very fragrant, climbing rose that has romantic look??
Comments (33)Wow, I've culled out some of them and now I've got more to contemplate. Thank you, I'M NOT COMPLAINING HERE :).... At this time of year for my area, is it better to 1/ get it as a potted rose since bare root season here has come and gone OR...2/Order it as a bareroot? Assuming I can get EXACTLY what I want potted up (but maybe that is not possible, I don't know enuf at the moment how the rose industry works). QUESTION: I just got D.Austin's catalog in the mail (swoon)but after reading some other posts etc. I'm not sure about them,,,I noticed that every description says "repeat bloomer" and I'm finding posts that contradict their catalog so I'm relaying on you "my friends" for tried and true climbers for my area and have been rewarded by your wonderful info and suggestions for specific roses to meet my needs. Since I really want a repeat bloomer, as I enjoy being out in my yard year round, is it more of a grower thing, as to how well they have propagated their roses to repeat bloom or just the genetics of that rose, that determines how well it repeat blooms, or is it a location thing of where you plant the rose? I know, I drive my own self crazy, being a 'thinker' personality isn't always a plus. Leads one to ask the 'WHO IS A CREDIBLE/exceptional GROWER' question? Should one go with overall info on that particular rose (to make final decisions) or rely on how that one particular grower has developed their particular rose and pick that way? I'd like to avoid paying huge amounts for shipping but paying extra for a really good rose now, is money well spent in enjoying the rose in the future....See MoreIdentity of old very fragrant rose?
Comments (17)I grew EdB for a number of years and will confirm that it never got anywhere near as tall as yours. Also it was a bit twiggy. In my garden the new growth was clean and fresh, the flush was lovely, and after that it would deteriorate badly. I gave it a number of years hoping that it would improve, because when it was good, it was very, very good. I cannot say if your leaves and canes match those of my EdB, simply because I no longer remember the finer details of the rose I once grew. However, what you have is a very pretty rose indeed. I do hope yours stays at least reasonably healthy and that you can enjoy it all season long. If it does, then I would feel safe in saying that what ever it is, it is not the same rose I grew in my Porch Garden for a number of years.

Comments (12)Hi, I'm not a grower of roses, but a painter of them. I would like to commend you on these beautiful photographs, including sunlight. I wish that more people would realize that photographing them in sunlight adds another dimension to them, the blue reflecting from the sky back into the shadows, the glow from within the deepest parts of the rose, these are stunning. Thanks for using the beautiful light of the sun in your photos instead of waiting for it to go behind a cloud to take the pictures! Cia...See Moreneed rose ID very fragrant
Comments (3)I never was much of a rose person, I just happen to acquire several from customers who came into my work. So, here is the question: I am trying to research all the plants I have because I will be moving & trying to take several with me, so I want to take the best care of them I can. SO>>> Besides my curiosity, is there really a need for me to research really deep Exactly what rose I have...As far as taking care of them, a rose is a rose, right? Please forgive me for my ignorance....See Morekstrong
