Munstead Wood--Reviews
Comments (92)@portlandmysteryrose Thank you! And SdDJ is gorgeous-sumptous! Wow! That’s an intensely beautiful color! purples & deep reds! Darcy Bussell arrives on this Friday, June 2, 2023, 89F that day!!! Lol! I ordered her just a few weeks ago. Fortunately next 2 days drop to 78F then 72F & cool for while. She will be soaked in a cool area on arrival....See MoreIs this rose (Munstead Wood) grafted or own root?
Comments (16)Just Google images of RMV and a pile will appear in your browser. It generally shows up as jagged/zigzagged pale creamy yellow to golden yellow marks on foliage, but the yellowish marks don't follow veins like they do with nutrient or hydration deficiency problems. Just FYI, oodles of roses have been grafted on RMV infected stock over the years, and countless others have been propagated via cutting from roses grown on infected stock. I grow a number of obviously RMV infected roses and a few others which surely must be infected even though they've shown no signs. All are thriving. Sometimes, RMV significantly weakens a plant, but given the number of flourishing infected plants I've seen over the years, I don't find RMV to be the greatest of worries. I'm guessing that there's a fairly good chance DA's own root Munsteads may be infected, too, but that's just a guess. Please keep us updated on your Munstead's progress! I'd love to read reports from your climate. I hope you enjoy your MW as much as I have mine! Carol...See MoreMunstead Wood rose
Comments (28)It's funny, I typically don't like red roses and don't have any others. I got this one because of the good reviews and was hoping it would lean more towards pink in my garden. It hasn't, but since it is such a good rose, it won me over....See MorePic of Your Dormant Munstead Wood
Comments (11)I can't share a picture at the moment due to where I am and the device I'm on, but I got an own root bare root (not a potted 2-quart own root) from David Austin Roses in spring of 2017. 2020 was its third full year and it finally started putting out thicker and much taller canes (approaching four feet, but only two good basals last year). Its first two growing seasons yielded short, thin, and spindly looking growth that was still thorny as all get out yet still bloomed decently. My own root bare root Lady of Shalott from David Austin Roses was also from spring 2017 and has followed an identical pattern of growth and development. Grafted plants may have a better leg up, and I understand many prefer Austins grafted in northern areas for vigour and size, but honestly, I have an own root Charlotte/Elgin Festival that gets 4' x 3' every season regardless of die back and my Austins on Dr. Huey haven't done any better growth-wise (except Chianti) honestly, so it is going to depend more on variety, zone, and micro climate more than the simple statement of "grafted do better" up north. I'll try to share an image if I have one of 'Munstead Wood' post pruning. It still has decent cane left much to my delight. Steven...See Moresultry_jasmine_nights (Florida-9a-ish)
