It's nice to look at pretty rose pictures when it's pouring rain, I can't wait until I can go out and see the real thing in my garden.

Hi all, I'll get in on this action. I enjoyed the 2009 series a lot and told myself I'd join in if it started up again in 2010. 3/25/10, 12 days after planting: The lower of two sets of growing trays - mostly tomatoes. I raised the lights up to take the picture, so don't start yelling at me about how they're too far away. Shown here are: Anna Russian, Better Boy, Big Boy, Big Mama, Bobbie, Brandywine, Cowlick's Brandywine, and OTV Brandywine. All in all we are trying 22 varieties in all this year (assuming they all sprout, that is - still two holdouts). We are definitely looking forward to trying a bunch of new things as well as some old reliables. Happy Gardening everyone. - Chris

Rosarama, im in no way taking credit for this growing medium, I learned about it on this forum. Its strickly for containers for what I know about it. The man that came up with it to my knowledge is Al Tapla. 5 parts pine bark, ground up cut up or whatever is done to it till its the average size of a dime. 1 part coarse perlite 1 part peat 2 cups dolimite, 1 cup of pro max minors, 2 cups of slow release fertilizer I mix every thing in a 36 gal container, a little at a time. I believe its the best thing since sliced bread. Look up and study Als mix. If your serious about growing maters in containers you should learn about Als mix, it would save you a lot of heart ache, and make you much more successful in growing in containers. Plant em if you got em. Sam

My Tumbling Toms went nuts in just a week or so, despite the cool cloudy weather. This variety is probably a keeper! In fact, I took two cuttings to make another hanging basket. Hope the taste is good! Forget about flowers in a hanging basket, lol...grow tomatoes! Will post photos soon of the cuttings, and my other 10 tomato varieties. Gosh that's alot...I cannot believe I ended up with so many, especially in a condo, LOL! May 18 May 26

I'd like to add a picture of my tomatoes too... I have 12 tomatoes in the ground: opalka, yellow pear, chocolate cherry, sweet 100, cherokee chocolate, kbx, cowlick's brandywine, big zac, box car willie, dr wyche's yellow, omar's lebanese and nar. as you can see, i've placed them in cages... do i still have to provide stakes for them or is the cage enough as a support? if i do have to provide a stake, which variety should i stake, or do i have to stake all of them? it'd be nice to know this early so i could provide the necessary stake support before they become bigger. also, which ones usually goes higher than 5'? i know yellow pear, chocolate cherry and sweet 100 does... how about the others? i only have a 5' cage, do i have to top them off when the time comes? thanks for any advice you can give, i'd greatly appreciate it.

Beautiful pictures of some really lovely roses. I love Secret, especially for its scent and Julia Child is also one of my favourite roses for the enormous amount of bloom. Abby's Angel is not readily available in my area, but the pic makes me wish it was. It will be sometime before my roses will be blooming so I always enjoy seeing roses from other gardens. Here is a photo of one of my favourite hybrid tea roses.

From somebody that took about 3000 pics last year of 400 different roses, this is truly impossible so I just picked one out of a hat that was nice.

Oh!!!! Those are all so lovely!! Does my heart good.

Jeffcat - what rose is that? Such a wonderful picture!!!

Kathy - I can't believe that color!! Amazing!! Is that a pretty typical color for Ebb Tide or is it a once in a blue moon color?

Thanks everyone!

These are beautiful. I thought I wanted Ebb Tide, now I'm sure I do! (Just not sure how it would fare in this part of the U.S.)
Marchesa looks luscious!

Yes I took thousands too, can't pick just one. How about PJPII?

Or 'Disneyland'? My Dad always called it "Dizzyland".

'Jude the Obscure'? This one is hard to photograph because it's in full blazing sun all the time:

I love this 'Abraham Darby' with all the little petals. It does that in fall. In spring the petals are larger and the flower is looser.

Well that's enough. Like I said, I've got thousands. Too many!

In my top 3 for overall satisfaction. And wow on the fragrance: Rouge Royale

Oh I'm really lovin Abe Darby, PJPII, and Disneyland!!! AD looks really amazing!!!!

I can't believe that Rouge Royale photo!!! So gorgeous. I had RR last year in a pot. Did nothing. I think I got one crappy looking bloom all year. Didn't have any smell. I hope it looks like that this year!!! Wow!

This is a great thread!

Love your shot of Outta the blue!! It looks like an antique rose. Precious Platinum is just bursting with flowers. Love it. I've ordered Mr. Lincoln this year, so I hope it does well and smells great. What do you think of your Mr. Lincoln?

Carol, Our Mr Lincoln is own-root and it is still young. We just got it last season as a baby band from Heirlroom.
It grew to about 3ft high it's first season from a 8 inch baby Heirloom band.
Carol, is your ML grafted???
