Peggy Martin Rose
Comments (16)@summersrhythm_z6a, here is Peggy Martin that I gave to my friend growing on his new fence that we built last year. It's already swirling around the swags. Last Oct. After it had been transplanted during mid-Summer. We transplanted another this spring so it is a little behind. These were growing at my house in total shade where they would get a great spring flush and put on wonderful growth but not much after that. Here's a picture of them from my house. You may have seen it before. Please click to enlarge. :-)...See MoreDoes anyone grow Peggy Martin in Zones 4/5?
Comments (13)I have several Peggy Martins in Zone 5b, central Illinois. They have done well over winter even with temperatures dipping below zero. I don't have to trim much dead wood. I planted the first ones in summer 2019 and in just three years, some have grown to 15 feet covering a massive amount of height and space. I even did cuttings and they sprouted and grew. I ordered more this year and will line all my fence with them. I will post several pictures...See MoreSecond year Peggy Martin rose
Comments (30)What a wonderful (and timely) post this is! Such inspiring photos and ideas shared above. The Peggy Martin rose is a stunner–and only has prickles during her youngest years, interestingly. I have a young one heading up to a second-floor balcony, and hope that she will mature to the degree of loveliness pictured in this thread. Having heard that a friend growing a similarly young Peggy Martin in zone 6a discovered brown canes (and no sign of spring growth as of yet), there has been concern about winter frost damage, can anyone kindly advise as to spring behavior for zone 6? I have suggested morning Superthrive–the breakfast of champions!–but I too have become curious and concerned about Peggy's apparent struggle there. Many thanks in advance for any guidance and/or assurances offered....See MorePeggy Martin rose in DFW
Comments (3)Can't remember its Bloom cycle, but I have a monster Peggy Martin that I grew from a cutting I stuck in the ground, and ignored after its first year. The word bulletproof comes to mind....See Moreroseseek
