Comments (21)Sorry...me again. Kate...I wanted to ask you about the color pink of Viking Queen. From the picture I saw it was hard for me to determine the color. In the first pic I saw, she looked salmony pink, but in a picture I saw later she looked like a true, rich pink? Not that it matters, cause either way she is beautiful, but if she was salmony like the first pic; then I think she would look great with Morden Blush, but if she is more pink, I was wondering if she would look better with Rose de Rescht? Also like Compassion's color with Morden Blush...oh the pressure...lol! Terryjean...Camille Pissaro is really unique and very pretty and I'm thinking it would look great with the Dublin Bay climber I was first thinking of. I really need a bigger yard...lol. Again, thanks to you all! Eileen...See MorePlease comment: Paul Bocuse, Sonia Rykiel, Versigny
Comments (5)I do not spray or winter protect. Chantal Merieux is small but survives the winter. Francis Blaise died but other roses have also died in this location. The blooms are beautiful. Paul Bocuse is almost dead after a few years. Not Recommended. Sonia Rykiel has survived and the blooms are nice. Madame Paule Massad is also very good. Jardins de Viels Maisons is OK. Dan Poncet is very small. Martine Guillot is huge. Florence Delattre died, but it was also in a location where other roses have died. None of the Generosa roses show any particular problem with blackspot here. My impression is that Generosa roses are not as hardy as Austins. They are not like Austins. Martha Stewart likes Generosa roses. Here is a link that might be useful: Modern Shrub Roses Martha Stewart...See MoreTrying to bud my roses *not* under patent, here's the list I have...
Comments (22)Ok - FYI, we may have folks here who don't know that it is illegal to send plants or plant materials into California (unless there's proper inspection and certificates). There can be fines for the SENDER "The importation or smuggling into California of live plants and plant product, or unapproved, uninspected, or uncertified wild or domesticated animals, whether as pets or livestock, will have serious legal and financial consequences for the persons involved. These activities are prohibited as they could result in potentially damaging impacts to California's agriculture and environment." https://www.cdfa.ca.gov/plant/pe/transport_animals_plants.html This is why we have agricultural inspection stations say when you drive in from Nevada that ask if you have plant material with you. I know they don't teach it in the schools, so there may be people unaware. It's also why Houzz has the disclaimer on all trading forums....See MoreGuillot rose: Versigny
Comments (12)Jerome - I agree that Versigny is an outstanding rose. I just love the bicolor effect it can have when happy, even though it's not particularly hardy in my zone. I've replaced mine to give it prime real estate, since among the Guillot/Massad roses this one is my favorite. Initially when I checked my list for Guillot roses I only found the Comtesse d'Oxford HP bred by the original Guillot in the 1800s, which is a very nice and fairly hardy HP by my standards, and has a nice purple tone in cooler weather. Once I realized that what I called Massad roses were released by the company named for Guillot (like the Evers/Tantau overlap in names), I realized I have a lot of Guillot roses that I really like. Elizabeth Stuart is an absolute trooper and fantastic apricot rose in a cold zone 4 pocket of my yard that comes back without fail every year sometimes even with surviving cane. She can put out a lot of blooms for a less than ideal spot and she tends to stay apricot without pinking out like a lot of Austins do. She's got that double multipetaled exuberant bloom that we love in these Generosa roses and she does better than Carding Mill in the same spot. This bush shot isn't ideal, but for zone 5 if you can get this kind of nice branching and bloom on a rose it's an accomplishment for the rose. She gets bushy enough I really should provide her some support to help hold those big fat blooms. I'm not as enamored with the pinkish color of Frances Blaise and she's not as hardy, but the blooms are still nice. Madame Paule Massad has survived in a less than ideal part shade spot, and initially I'd regretted that, but since her loose blooms resemble the hybrid musks more than the Austins or HTs she fits better among the other HMs anyway. Paul Bocuse has a nice bloom and it's hardy enough in the same cold spot area as Elizabeth Stuart, but he doesn't have as enthusiastic a bloom cycle. He's also not reliably apricot - sorry about the crisped edges on this one. A lot of people even one zone warmer than me rave about Sonia Rykiel, but she's marginally hardy enough that she doesn't bush out much or bloom that often for me. My plants of Chantal Merieux, Florence Delattre, and Hella aren't old enough yet for blooms, since they just went in last year. Hella is a very enthusiastic cane grower though and survived the winter fine, so I'm expecting good things from him this year. All mine are from Roses Unlimited and in my experience they're the only one in the US that I've seen selling these roses. Cynthia...See MoreCori Ann - H0uzz violated my privacy
