Comments (10)She is lovely. And continuous bloom, too? I'd say a little rose worship is in order... She looks pretty darned healthy for one of those supposedly problem-prone Pernetianas- hmmm... Thanks for sharing the photo, Virginia...See More2004 AEN Supplement Rose List March 2005

Comments (1)If I had to Limit Myself to 8 HT roses they would start with Louise Estes, Veterans'Honor, Double Delight, Gold Medal,Moonstone, Elizabeth Taylor, Maid of Honor and last Let Freedom Ring. Susan and I have been growing roses sine the early 1980's and I have found that the best soil mix for us is the 6-4-2 method. That breaks down to 6 shovel fulls of good top soil(We buy ours from the garden center), 4 shovel fulls of peat moss and last 2 shovel fulls of mushroom compost. I also add 2 cups of mills magic rose mix(A organic mix).Then before We put this mix in the hole I add 1/2 cup of Superphosphate to bottom of hole. I hope this helps.--Ron...See MoreCitrus Splash, Louise Clemments and Shrub Roses
Comments (4)Hi Susan: Its funny because seeing your garden was my inspiration and of course I had to go get roses. I had never in my life before seen roses that looked like yours, the old garden roses and the full formed old garden look. That first year I started with some Austins and just went on from there. I did find that although I like so many flower forms from singles to to typical HT centered flowers that I much prefer floribundas and shrub roses. I have very few Austins, just the ones I bought that first year and then I got Golden Celebration the spring after. I doubt I will ever get another. But I got some Clemments roses last year and just flipped for them so I got a bunch more this spring....See Morejacqueline9CA
