Heat tolerant vs heat resistant vs heat loving
Comments (33)In my zone 6b Pennsylvania garden, I grown Gemini, Tamora, Lavaglut and olog. I have a friend in the same zone (near me) who has Cherry Parfait and a DIL who has Frederick Mistral. I'm thinking you might have slightly more humidity than I. My gardens are all day south exposed full sun. Gemini is a wonderful rose and does quite well, even with disease resistance, but like Diane NJ say, it shuts down over the very hottest, most humid part of the summer. Winters, it seems quite strong. Besides being very small, Tamora doesn't do so well in the heat and humidity either and is more prone to black spot. I'm not as thrilled with this rose as I could be and it suffers from winter die back. Frederick Mistral also suffers from winter kill, but not to the extent as Tamora. It is also a larger bush, more heat tolerant but still prone to black spot. Cherry Parfait, olog and Lavaglut are all outstanding in the gardens around here. Cherry Parfait is more prone to black spot, but is winter strong. Olog and lavaglut will get blackspot in my garden toward the end of the season and I do spray, but not as regularily as some of the others. Remember to keep Tamora, olog and Lavaglut toward the front of the bed since all these roses have a tendency to be squatty. Tamora looks more like a miniature except for the leaf and bloom size. The plant is so extremely tiny. This is just my take. All roses act differently in different areas....See MoreWhat's a hat channel?
Comments (3)Fair enough. Apparently when you are putting a wood stove near a combustible wall, most local codes require an air space between the tile and the wall. Looks like you create by doubling up backerboard and use some type of metal thing to fasten it to the wall while keeping the 1" of air space. A hat channel is basically a heat shield with name that makes no sense. I'm gonna guess hat is an abbreviation for heat air something. I think the logic is that they don't want the tiles to conduct the heat to the combustible wall. My stove is backing up to a poured concrete wall, so I don't need one.

Comments (5)Well, I may try to test it or just try it anyway. Nana, good to hear yours have not cracked. I found the prettiest wooden leaf at the thrift store and thought it would look good with some interesting green glass. Thanks for the input....See MoreHeat Resistant Mat for Quartz
Comments (15)A second to the suggestion from vinmarks about those Le Creuset mats, I have several and can vouch for their quality. Nice and thick, and those ridges help keep things cools, and help with counter "stickiness". They don't move unless you tug on them! Great under Instapot, Air Fryer, and the large pots I use for Sous Vide. Perfect for half sheet pans out of the oven....See Morehobes1
