Comments (33)In my zone 6b Pennsylvania garden, I grown Gemini, Tamora, Lavaglut and olog. I have a friend in the same zone (near me) who has Cherry Parfait and a DIL who has Frederick Mistral. I'm thinking you might have slightly more humidity than I. My gardens are all day south exposed full sun. Gemini is a wonderful rose and does quite well, even with disease resistance, but like Diane NJ say, it shuts down over the very hottest, most humid part of the summer. Winters, it seems quite strong. Besides being very small, Tamora doesn't do so well in the heat and humidity either and is more prone to black spot. I'm not as thrilled with this rose as I could be and it suffers from winter die back. Frederick Mistral also suffers from winter kill, but not to the extent as Tamora. It is also a larger bush, more heat tolerant but still prone to black spot. Cherry Parfait, olog and Lavaglut are all outstanding in the gardens around here. Cherry Parfait is more prone to black spot, but is winter strong. Olog and lavaglut will get blackspot in my garden toward the end of the season and I do spray, but not as regularily as some of the others. Remember to keep Tamora, olog and Lavaglut toward the front of the bed since all these roses have a tendency to be squatty. Tamora looks more like a miniature except for the leaf and bloom size. The plant is so extremely tiny. This is just my take. All roses act differently in different areas....See MoreHeat Resistant Tomatoes for So. Cal
Comments (4)I'm trying Super Sioux this year. Cannot report results yet but it's advertised as heat tolerant and this variety is mentioned a few times in the link provided above by digdirt. I could send you a few seeds to try if you like. email me with your address if you are interested. This post was edited by marymcp on Fri, Jan 4, 13 at 7:55...See Moreheat resistance of cuor di bue?
Comments (3)Where, geographically, do you grow your tomatoes? It would help to know what kind of heat/humidity you're talking about and I couldn't find any mention of location on your page? Cuore di Bue is very well known and many palces sell it, including Bill's Grow Italian site in MA. He sells seed packed by Franchi, true, but there are many many sources for Cuore di Bui as well as other Italian hearts such as Teton de Venus. And yes, I've grown Cuore di bui.
