OMG! Did you get your Edmund's catalog??

7 years ago

Holy cow it came today. Wow. Just Wow! If you like stripey roses like I do, you're in trouble!!! Not only do they have the new peach and apricot stripey ht PEACH SWIRL from Certified Roses, they also have two new Weeks stripeys, FREDA KAHLO, an orange, red and gold floribunda, and the pink-on-pink grandiflora called PARADE DAY. Crap. I'm gonna be in trouble. I already put ten roses in my tentative basket. Oh there's a new Hulthemia hybrid, that's all ruffly and semi-double and changes colors from pinks to lavenders called EASY ON THE EYES. And I caved on MADAME ANNISETTE and PRINCESSE CHARLENE, which Regan's has already sold out of. Also replacing two that died... LOUISE HAY and NEIL DIAMOND. The other two I chose (so far) are VIOLET'S PRIDE and FRUITY PETALS CL. Youch, that's over $200. Good thing tho... they have free shipping on orders over $100! Was gonna order PEACH SWIRL, VIOLET'S PRIDE and FRUITY PETALS from Regan's, but even with their 10% discount, the Edmund's ones are cheaper and free shipping!! Yeah!!!

When will you start ordering your seeds from catalogs?
Q
Comments (13)
Better now than later. Do it as soon as you can, then later you can add in from trades or what you find in local store. Remember, the economy has tanked, and because of it a lot of people are now growing a little salad and herb garden when they never did before. Last spring seed catalogues were swamped and it took nearly twice as long for most people to get their seeds. Hybrids run out faster than OPs because novice gardeners select hybrids because they take less care to maintain. If you, or anyone else, are looking for tomatoes I can help with that--I've just enlarged my list to 150 varieties. Here is a link that might be useful: Your Choice Tomato SASE

Edmund's Roses....any hope of them getting their act together in 2019?
Q
Comments (19)
I am pretty sure they are on Doc Huey. So far so good on these. I just remembered, that I did have an issue with one of the Distant Drums. It had some cracking around the base. I notified Edmunds and they sent me a new one right away and told me to keep the old one. So the customer service was really good for me with that issue. I am in NE FL so the nematode issues arent as bad as in So FL. Our soil is different. I believe we have some nematodes in the sandier areas. There is a lot of forest land with thick oaks, pines, etc here so the soil in those areas is rich. Some areas are a combination of sand and richer soil. I have some areas on our property that have straight orange clay and poor drainage. I have been using manures and do vermicomposting etc and try to be as organic as possible (although not 100%). I think all that has helped alot. We have mostly wooded areas on our property but there are some sandy areas where it is more challeging to grow stuff. But after 6 yrs of compost, those areas are much better than they were.

Did Edmunds' send me a rose with crown gall on the roots?
Q
Comments (31)
I wish I could be of help ac91z6, but I'm rather clueless when it comes to this topic. The first rose Edmunds sent me a rep told me their horticulturist believed it to be crown gall and to destroy the plant. They shipped new plants, and the new rose had similar roots to the first, I sent them pictures of the new one, and this time their horticulturist called me and told me this was normal for Francis Meilland's roots, and to not worry about planting the rose. I am not a horticulturist, so I took his word at face value and planted the rose. I'm not entirely naive, and created a paper trail with them should I have a problem down the road given the conflicting information they gave me. Out of the 80+ roses I've planted in the past three years, FM is the only one with roots that looked like that. My advice would be to reach out to Regan, offer to send them pictures and see what they say.

Where did you get your earth angel rose
Q
Comments (26)
Chamber's Nursery, Winona, TX, has gallon size Earth Angel in stock as of moments ago, just checked, for $21.95 plus shipping. I've purchased a number of new roses from them just recently. They are maintaining or even slightly exceeding the quality the previous Chamblee's owner, Mark, maintained. I highly recommend them. Moses

Well, thanks a lot, Beth - I'm that much poorer because of you! Haha, no, I appreciate you letting us know. I have not received a catalogue yet. I've wanted to grow Princess Charlene de Monaco for a couple of years but have resisted - wanting to avoid ordering from a different nursery I won't mention. Just ordered it but where to put it - who knows!

I got mine too. I think you can just call them to request a catalog. I ordered roses from them this spring, this is my 1st time to receive a catalog. A lot of lovely roses! I might have Princess Charlene de Monaco in the garden, I thought I bought one this summer, but have to find it......if not I have to order a couple. :-)

Thanks for the link Romogen.

Beth I must admit that your enthusiasm and photos of blooms on here and HMF have inspired several of my purchases! Luckily I already bought the two I really wanted from Alden's... a local nursery... so I am totally able to withstand the temptations in Edmond's. Like you, Peach Swirl and Princess Charlene De Monaco got me pretty excited.

I like to support local nurseries in person when I can. :)

I wasn't able to withstand the temptation from mail ordering some of the rarities I found at Rose Petal Nursery though. Serratipetala, Mademoiselle Franziska Kruger (I'm weird... I like foliage and the idea that it is prone to vegetative growth), Fortune's Five Color Rose. The shipping cost is prohibitive though so that stopped me from ordering too many.

Well guys, I'm more than happy to enable you all! LOL

I decided to change out one of the roses on that list above. I think I'll hold off on MADAME ANISETTE. Not sure where she will go. And I'm thinking maybe she'll show up at Lowes in the spring. The one I am changing to tho is COLOR MAGIC. I lost mine several yrs ago, and got a replacement one earlier this yr from Heirloom (or was it RVR?)... anyway, it was obviously own-root. Well, it died on me the other day. I think I'd rather have it grafted. Still gotta send the order in.

Then, I wanna do a small order from Hortico, seeing as how they have to replace a couple from last yr that were the wrong roses. I have to pay the shipping, so figured I'll order a few more roses.... They have a bunch of DAs that they didn't have last yr. I gotta fill in the apricot/yellow bed with a couple more...

Also wanna do a small order from J&P once they get the rest of their roses added on. I really don't need any more roses... LOL but I lost a very large amount this past season so I have quite a few open spaces to fill in.

We'll all have to compare our PRINCESS CHARLENEs next yr!!

I received my Edmunds catalog yesterday, something about an actual catalog instead of looking at roses on a website is special!
