I remember the year my school schedule gave me the time to go over to the studio in West Philly once a week to dance on Bandstand.

I just recently picked one of these up at my local nursery on a whim. The tag description says, "cream washed centers washed with a vibrant cherry pink" on the petals. My expectation was it would be kind of a cherry pink double delight - looking rose in coloration. I don't have any expectations, but will certainly update on what it does here in Georgia for me. As an aside, Sara Ann in Ok, your roses are just superlative, always. Bravo :) Adrianne

I don't grow GB, but did mark it down as "excellent" when I saw it in 95deg humid head at the Columbus Garden of roses. I sometimes find the modern stripey roses a bit strident, but this one had a charm even my picky DH appreciated. It was a low growing, bushy floriforous plant with excellent clean foliage. I wouldn't have earmarked on just those attributes, but add in fragrance and it got a star! Gracie was not so fortunate.

I agree dick clark is a vigorous rose! I just moved mine because it was in a really bad spot. It is already responding well. I know what you mean about the blooms, it may not have the most pretty blooms, compared to the austin & other full blooms. But you can't knock a rose that continually performs!

Thanks, NHBabs. I looked for the FAQuestions link, but couldn't find it so posted this query. I take it that it's not a "fatal" conditions because we did have sawfly larvae on pines several years ago. We inspected all the pines for sawflies ... but didn't know about their loving roses, too.

He will be missed, for sure. I am old enough to remember him from his early career - last saw him a few years ago, and he hasn't been well for about 10 years. RIP, Mr. Clark.

Just saw it posted on Yahoo. What a wonderful man....a true class act.

When I was doing my radio show I wrote to him and told him that I played the theme song from American Bandstand. He wrote me back...thanked me...and said "keep rockin"

His kind note is one i will always treasure.

I think he was a genuinely nice guy. Never heard a mean thing about him. It was sad looking back tonight at the tributes, especially the early Phila. days.
