Lady Hillingdon, Weeping China Doll, Lavender Lassie?
Comments (8)I can only speak to Lavender Lassie. Lavender Lassie only reblooms for me if the winter and winter/spring transition has not been too severe. This past year was the first year since that awful Easter freeze of '07 that she and any of my other established hybrid musks rebloomed. If Lavender Lassie is doing okay, it blooms heavily in the spring and then a little more in the fall, but that is about it. No magic answer on this one....See MoreWhen in rose season does Lavender Lassie begin flowering?
Comments (1)sorry for the double post......See MoreLavender Lassie?
Comments (1)Because Lavender Lassie is a Hybrid Musk, she is happiest in areas that get a cold winter and a cooler summer. There she is a thing of beauty. Can even grow to 9 feet tall. Always has lots of flowers on her....See MoreLavender Lassie, other Hybrid Musks bloom habit?
Comments (14)I live in a great climate for Hybrid Musks (PNW). In my garden, mine are in their 2nd full season in the ground and it looks like I'll be getting three flushes from them this year. The HM's I have are: Felicia...a stupendous rose, with a HUGE flush...it's currently having its 2nd Cornelia...also having its 2nd flush Francesca...my least bloomy, but also gets the least sun...currently in its 2nd flush Prosperity....a band planted this spring (June) and its bloomed almost continually Sibelius....its first flush lasted 2 months! It's really a continuous bloomer, but I cut it back hard to get rid of the huge amount of spent flowers. It's gearing up for a 2nd flush Penelope...also in a shadier spot, it's gearing up for it's second (small flush)...I think I'll move it to a sunnier spot Buff Beauty....this has been a slow grower for me-planted as a band this spring Darlow's Enigma...the only rose in my garden that's completely un-irrigated. it blooms constantly until Aug, then peters out, but the foliage stays really healthy and nice looking. I think it would bloom continually for me if I watered it. I'm planning on moving it this spring to a better spot Kathleen....still in a pot, but blooming in flushes which I'm so pleased about! A truly beautiful, ethereal rose Sally Holmes...blooms in flushes almost all year long, in part sun Lyda...I'm saving the best for last here. One of my most beautiful roses, in a quiet way. Blooms in flushes for me in part sun, where the blooms last for weeks! In full sun, the blooms washed out and lasted less than a week I fertilize my roses with horse manure and Rose Tone in the spring, and try to repeat the Rose Tone after each flush. I would say the HM's bloom faster if they are deadheaded after a flush. I also water my roses A LOT!! I think that helps with the 2nd flush in particular as that happens in the driest part of our summer (August). I hope that info helps. It's so nice to be able to contribute here instead of only asking questions!! I am still a newbie rose grower, but I've definitely learned some things already....See MorePlumeria Girl (Florida ,9b)
