Need Your Best Red Rose Suggestion
Comments (25)Those of you interested in all the red roses choices might want to do a search of this site for "red roses." Within the past year, there have been a couple long and excellent threads on that topic--should help you a lot. The zone 5 requirement is the kicker. Chrysler Imperial, for instance, is NOT hardy in zone 5, and I'm not sure how many are. You do know about helpmefind.com, don't you? It has hardiness ratings, though I sometimes find them to be a bit on the conservative side. Kate...See Morethe best& favorite climbing rose...
Comments (29)Hi there everyone, As per my previous posts and my profile I am a relative newcomer to the United States. I emigrated here from England in 2002, arriving 2/14 (just call me a romantic). We live on a 167 acre farm East of Independence MO. The immediate yard is approximately 90,000 sq ft. We recently bought 22 or 23 climbing roses of various names and colours to wend their way through a privacy fence around the inner yard (read flower garden). I also have 20 Clematis to pick up from a local nursery to accentuate the roses during periods of there being no blooms. Or if I am fortunate enough, to have one compliment the other. How close to the Roses should the Clematis be planted? I have planted the Roses approximately eight feet apart. We recently installed a deck and I read with some interest in a previous post about a rose climbing around a deck. I must admit I like the idea, but I did wonder about the thorns being so close to where people will be, do you find this a problem or do folks just tend to be wary of the roses and admire them from a distance. Oh and last but not least I recently watched a TV program where a lady stuck a banana in the bottom of the hole where she planted a Rose, any comments critiscisms or suggestions greatfully accepted and encouraged. Yours with grubby hands. Steve the UKtransplant...See MoreWhat is your favorite rose to show at a rose show?

Comments (33)I have only two ('Prospero' and 'The Prince'), but I don't know if I'd recommend them for you. They're not tremendously vigorous (mine are own-root), but I saw that as an asset for where I planted them. I wanted them because I grew them once before, and was willing to put up with their "issues" to enjoy them again. If I had the space for some of the more recent (and more vigorous) DA reds, I'd get some of the others mentioned here. I think the more vigorous ones would be better bets in your climate, since they'd bounce back better after Winter damage. :-) ~Christopher...See MoreNinkasi
