Favorite Paul Barden Roses
Comments (12)I grow 6 of Paul Barden's roses. Unconditional Love, Treasure Trail, Jeri Jennings, Golden Buddha, Siren's Keep, and Dragon's Blood. Unconditional Love, Treasure Trail and Jeri Jennings are my favorite of the group. Unconditional Love is a mini moss with a cupped old fashion bloom form, it is always in bloom and always healthy. Mine is 3 feet tall and 2 feet wide. Treasure Trail is also a moss and I would say it grows like a floribunda. Very unique flowers of pink and yellow with old fashion form and a button eye. Always healthy and two feet tall and three feet wide. Jeri Jennings is a beautiful Hybrid Musk with buttery yellow blooms, wonderful fragrance and a nice spreading habit. Mine is grown in partial shade and has been very healthy. Some report dealing with black spot on this rose but this has been very minor for me. It is 4 feet tall by six feet wide. Golden Buddha is a Hybrid Bracteata with intensely pumpkin colored blooms in my garden. It is always in bloom, almost to a fault. In my garden the plant is only about a foot and a half tall and two feet wide. I wish it would get bigger and then produce the blooms it does. It may be because this past summer was the hottest on record in Oklahoma and Golden Buddha had a hard time with the heat. Spring and Fall it shined in this its second year in my garden. Last year was the first for Siren's Keep and Dragon's Blood in my garden so I will wait to review them until after the coming season. They are both off to a good start though. I have pictures of all but Dragon's Blood in my blog which I will link to below. Here is a link that might be useful: Red Dirt Roses...See MoreRoses That Can Stand The Heat From Rogue Valley Roses
Comments (23)Hi Strawberryhill: I wonder where Khalid is??? It seems slightly cooler than here but close. I attempted Abbaye de Cluny about 8 years ago; she always looked ivory, and then burned horribly in late May. Instead I grew Brandy and Just Joey, which did not have the attributes of ADC, but they held color and did not burn. I usually look to the Phoenix gardeners to see if something can take the heat because I have found that 105 degrees is very different than 115, or 121, and AZ is one place I have found that deals with extreme heat and even more persistent high temperatures that relentlessly delve near or into the 120's. July and August are our brutal months. It hit 122 in the city yesterday and it is still June. It is often in the 100's beyond midnight, was already 95 at 7 a.m. Wednesday, but all of this is coupled with drought conditions. The one hundred teens to 120's are the norm for 2+ months straight; it is dreadful. It would be great to discover other specific places that also deal with the heat and drought as we do because their plant selections could be more suitable for my area. This is an odd place to garden. Unlike Phoenix, it gets too cold to grow cactus without winter protection. Las Vegas could be a top contender for the "where not to live" places if you are an avid gardener and want to grow a wide range of annuals, perennials, roses and other plants in a garden. I read the thread, and saw the lovely photos and am eyeing Excellenz von Schubert... again... that is if we move. The Marie Pave took my breath away. There is also an abundance of information that I really need to siphon through and decipher in terms of my situation; especially related to the horse manure and termites. We do not have big termite issues here; unlike California, a termite inspection with a home purchase was standard protocol, but we could be moving my newly purchased and potted roses to the PNW, and that changes things. I really appreciate your advice because it is fundamental and I believe wise as the focus should also be the biological environment inclusive of soil and its components. I have a hunch that your input and advice may prove to be invaluable for me.

Comments (3)Good to hear from you Anne. I often think about you and your garden, though I don't often post and don't often see your very often any more either. I guess I'm an old timer and mostly a lurker these days. I think the last time I corresponded with you was about a rose called Morgengrus. Sadly it didn't do much for me and it is gone now. Though the bed where I planted it seems to be in decline and it may not have been the rose. Most of the roses in that bed are nine or ten years old now and I think that they are worn out from the yearly winter kill to near the crowns. I remember hearing somewhere that roses grafted on Multiflora wear out after ten or twelve years and that seems to be what is happening in my front bed. The old plants have massive woody knots at the graft and were not putting out vigorous basal breaks last summer as in the past. I think the soil may also be getting tired because the bed is crowded with roses, delphiniums and perenial fox gloves. So, I plan to dig it up this spring, put in fresh compost and manure and replant with new roses, including those from RVR. Hopefully, that will fix the problem. I hope that you are doing well and that your garden is also doing well and bringing you joy. Good to hear from you again, thanks for the reply. Happy New Year and a happy, healthy gardening season to you. Jayne Austin and a hint of things to come this summer. Cheers, Rick...See MoreAnyone grow RVR's Paul Barden's Cabbage Rose?
Comments (38)Well my plant is very young, and on the back (north) west, so may be getting perhaps less sun. This might account for less bushiness. Also it is still young, and recovering from near rabbit annihilation. I will check the buds as they mature for any resinous scent. Certainly some of my other mosses have it! The buds are still very small so I don't want to poke and prod them for a bit yet. Paul, I do so appreciate you helping me get to the bottom of this! I certainly can understand the frustration of having your name on something when it doesn't belong there! Ps, Siren's Keep has made its way to my garden, and I'm very excited to see its progress this year. Your roses seem so happy here in Minnesota, and that is not always the case for a great many roses!...See MoreSheila z8a Rogue Valley OR
