Comments (12)I'm not a yellow fan either but Silaom Amazing Grace is one of my faves as well. Nice shade of yellow, usually a lot of green, perfect blooms with thick substance. Sherry, I've had Pink Lantis for years. It doesn't exist in the daylily data base or anywhere else I can search. A friend of mine picked it up at a Philly area daylily show. Must be unregistered but it is a great performer year after year....See MoreAmazing Grace...amazing flower form!
Comments (17)Lavenderlace and Ben, Thanks for your input! I shovel pruned Savannah because of its flat blooms. I couldn't stomach looking at it after a while. The flower color washed out to dead common beige, too. It also was touchy concerning winter hardiness...never came back strong enough in the spring to make much progress. I had great expectations concerning Belinda's Dream; planted four of them some years ago. In my garden it never got more than 14" tall growth by seasons end; dying to the ground every winter even with protection! They've been gone a while now. So much for her Earth Kind designation, as far as my garden conditions go. BTW, Carefree Beauty black spotted here with the best of them. The several I had great hopes for are gone long ago. Every garden is different. The factors that make or break a rose around here are typical of the North East: hot, humid summers; cold, rose killing winters, and heavy, clay soil. In addition, I garden about 80 miles south of the snow belt. The insulating benefits of snow cover as well as freezing and thawing, come and go all winter here, creating havoc. My USDA designation as zone 6b does not take into account the hit or miss snow cover, and unpredictable freeze/thaws. Zone 6 plants, perennials in particular, freeze and thaw all winter, and rot out by spring. It's more like a zone 5 here. Butterfly Bush, Buddleia, is a shaky bet to grow here. The dwarfs rot out in their first winter. Any fragrance type a rose has, and as powerful as possible is my war cry. The mix of every conceivable scent in the garden which wafts over to me seated in my favorite garden chair is what I covet. I like them all. Amazing Grace's scent will suit me just fine. I'll put down some Azomite mineral on AG. That ought to keep her blooms plump when vased up. Moses...See MoreFirst blooms of First crush
Comments (8)This is such a delicate fragrant rose. I wish I could figure out how to get rid of the thrips. I even sprayed mine with some conserve which is supposed to be great and nothing. It isn’t a great picture, but it looked very rough in person so I gave up and cut it down. I would like to add all my garden has thrips, but some roses just handle it well. Olivia Austin is very light pink but the damage doesn’t show much....See MoreHalloBlondie (zone5a) Ontario, Canada
