Kylie, "Butt-load"!ROTFLMFAO Daniella, to be honest, I haven't given anything fert. Just compost/mulch, used to be called Philly-Mulch,free from the water treatment facility(purified people poop with wood chips).This year it is called Earthmate Mulch,new process of composting it, now it's safe to use around edible plants. It wasn't before.I put the fine stuff on my beds before planting.That's it! I even used it to make up potting soil mix! Great stuff & free! Theresa

Thank you everyone. I'm so looking forward to the fall flush. Anticipation is 1/2 the fun :) Elvi, I ordered Candice from Ludwig's branch in US. Beth mentioned that they are done with this season but you can always order for the next season. The blooms are 3"-3.5". Attached is the full plant in a 21" width x 17" height pot for your reference. I ordered bare root roses online from Regan and picked them up locally to save on the shipping cost. Overall, they have good products. It's better to order the bare roots from them than to buy their potted roses because their potted roses aren't cheap unless they are on sale like last Labor Day. I understand we're in the drought in California, so to water all of the potted roses must be really expensive. On the other hand, if they have something that I really like then I don't mind paying more for a certain rose. Last year I paid something like $45 for a Black Magic potted rose. Here is the link for Candice http://www.ludwigsroses.com/shop/product/candice-89?search=candice

Ambridge Rose and Strawberry Hill are to die for. I'm an old rose person so forgive me if I don't comment about the modern roses. I tried Ambridge Rose a long time ago and almost immediately it turned into a rust bucket. It was very deflating. Yours seems extremely happy.

I can just picture Ebbtide and Jule Newmar next to each other. That Ebbtide has a very strong color. And Lovestruck is so unusual! I've never seen a rose in that color (or any other flower either). What a labor of love to grow roses! Brandy

Those are some beautiful roses. I need to find where I can purchase Ebbtide, every time I see a pic of her I love that rose even more. Does anyone know where I can get her on own root?

Thanks Wendy. Yeah, I was surprised LOVESTRUCK bloomed so early already!! I think I'm gonna like it!!

Thanks Jean!

April & Iris gal, I got HEATHER from Hortico. I think they list it as SILVER ANNIVERSARY.

Thanks Judy... always glad to enable... teeheehee

Ronda, you're right. LOVESTRUCK almost looks edible!

Thanks Bgrose, Florence, Jeff and Krista!

Brandy, that's a good idea having JULIE NEWMAR and EBB TIDE near each other. Unfortunately, those are planted in different beds. But I do have a bed of mauve and orange roses. It's a beautiful combo!

Rosenpots, I don't know of a own-root source for EBB TIDE.

Wow, great closeups. I'm in the market for a new camera. What kind do you use? I love the variety of colors. That's what I'm aiming for.
