For you: which is the most floriferous Austin?
Comments (56)Here's a photo of Lady Emma Hamilton, just fyi. However, my first pick for the combination of beauty, floriferousness and perfume may be Sharifa Asma. Her scent is just out of this world. For these traits you should also take a look at William Shakespeare 2000. Mine was nearly always in bloom and his richly crimson colored flowers are petal packed and exquisitely shaped. His scent is lovely sweet old rose. Golden Celebration and Crocus Rose are also beautiful and excellent performers. And another superb rose with stunning flower power already mentioned here is Molineux, although his blooms are not quite as beuatiful as those of the others. All of them are quite healthy.

Comments (2)The roses I got this year from DA website were grafted - Huntington rose and Rose de Rescht - they were huge and in great shape! I only saw bare roots on the website. Hope this helps. Liz...See MoreWhich Austin is your favorite
Comments (37)Twohuskies, believe me I understand. It is just that I have a tiny yard with already 300 + roses. I search for those that are misbehaving so I can Sp them or give them away, alas, DH hates the idea of SP-ing. Alas, the pergola is already taken by a gorgeous no-spray + self cleaning Noisette that I love dearly, not to mention all the other plants on the same pergola. (I am shameless when it comes to roses.) You are right, the only Tradescant I saw in town was a huge rose on a pergola like structure and it was magnificent. I saw Tradescant early evening in late May, so I do not even know if it does well in the south in the summer and/or is willing to repeat. But I adore that color; I guess here it should get afternoon shade otherwise this color would bleach out. Like WS2000 that is a dull pink and not at all reddish in full sun in our climate....See MoreNo More Austins for Me
Comments (150)I too am grateful for everyone on this forum, I have learned so much and have loved seeing everyone's beautiful roses. I did finally make it to Chamblees and came home with 2 DA, Evelyn and Golden celebration. I am very excited to watch them grow and I decided also on a SDLM and a pink Don Juan along with some cl pinkies. I have grown roses for years but didn't pay attention to names etc....just picked what was pretty to me. Now that I'm older I am interested in learning more about roses and this forum is the place to be for that! Everyone is so knowledgable and has great advice. I will admit I fell victim to the beautiful DA catalog, my husband calls it my rose porn :), but I am glad I was able to learn about other roses and open my mind to other choices. I do hope I love my DA's and am already thinking of other roses I want for next year. Thanks everyone for sharing all your pics and advice!...See MoreBenT (NorCal 9B Sunset 14)
