Well MaryAnn I went and picked this up from Rite Aid at lunch. It is just full of buds. I figure any rose that can do well shoved in with ten other small rose bushes with apparently no water in the shade of that building must be tough. Can't wait for them to open. Kate

Hey Chuck: You know I'm starting to think that is true. This year we added a rose bed in the front yard and expanded our perennial bed in back to include roses. In back the roses get great morning sun, a little bit of early afternoon sun and then are shaded by my birch tree and the neighbors cherry and apple trees. By far the roses in back are doing better. Of course I realize there could be other factors like the quality of the soil in back etc., But my husband and I seriously mulling over adding a tree that will grow fairly large in front to create a kinder late afternoon environment for the roses in the new bed that gets all day exposure. I used to think the maximum amount of sun for roses was the best but this summer has made me re evaluate that concept. Thanks. Kate

That bloom reminds me of Sombreuil, too, Ingrid. Or even a creamy version of one of the great white damasks like Botzaris or Madame Hardy. Full and intricate! What you said about maturity is so true. I've almost passed along several plants only to be rewarded later for keeping them after all. I am also (and perhaps oddly for this cultivar?) nurturing a white rose that hasn't lived up to my expectations--Blanc de Vibert, a Portland. Unlike other roses of its class, it's been slow to grow and has not bloomed but once or twice. I shall take inspiration from your White Meidiland and keep up hope. I think Blanc's blossoms will resemble yours if they ever get going. I should add that I've grown Blanc before and had much better luck. Maybe I need more worms! :-) -Carol This post was edited by PortlandMysteryRose on Mon, Feb 9, 15 at 1:00
