Sharing some of my rose photos as a thank you to you all for sharing yours! I love seeing everyone's gardens and learning from all the advice!
Queen Nefertiti is my favorite this summer. In our mid-80s daytime temperatures the blooms were lasting for about a week.

How to best send a rose bush to my mother, from my garden?
Comments (13)I have a similar question - in late July (Ohio) when it is obviously not dormant I want to dig up my Desmond Tutu rose bush and bring it to my parents in humid, hot Houston. Is flying with it as a bareroot a possibility since it's growing season? It was a bareroot plant 2 years ago with bigger roots so keeping it potted in soil is not an option. It's alive and healthy but still relatively small compared to some of my others. I'd be flying with it so it will be faster than Fed Ex next day, would be same day (but adding time on both ends to dig up then plant, just like in shipping). I wonder if it will survive in my carryon suitcase without soil , since ice packs are not allowed due to the liquids rule. Maybe I should do a checkin bag for a larger bag and add ice packs. Maybe I can water liberally for a few days before, soak and wrap damp brown paper packing material around the roots? Cuttings are not in consideration since the rose is likely still under patent, and even if it wasn't, there is no time. I could dig it up tomorrow as my sister's passing thru from Ohio to Texas... but I'd have to go dig it up and I don't think her husband and her want to drive with a rose in addition to their kids, or care for it in Dallas till they can go to Houston. I guess no one can really say whether it will survive or not, wonder if I should take a chance or if it's too much of a hassle. Or Desmond can be the sacrificial lamb to see if this works....See MorePictures of a new garden from a new member
Comments (27)Oh, you lovely ladies, if you could see my garden now you'd be horrified, it's all sticks with old leaves attached, and new ones coming through, and tiny rose bushes with wire fences around them. However, I hope that will all change in another month or two, when I should have blooming roses in my garden. I hadn't looked at these wedding photos in quite some time, and Cecil and I had such a sweet time remembering that day while looking at these pictures. How fortunate I am to have spent all these wonderful years since then in this wonderful place with that amazing man....See Moresome of my roses from my garden (lots)
Comments (19)I am located in the Kansas City, MO area, not exactly California. I have grown Kordes' Brilliant in the Pacific Northwest and here in the midwest. It gets about 4 - 5 feet tall, has reasonably good disease resistance, but does benefit from a regular spray program. It is one of my first to flower and last to quit. Its growth habit is straight up, almost cylindrical, but spreading a bit. Its flowering habit is what you would expect as a grandiflora which would be a good class for this rose, but that class is not used in Europe. It blooms singly and in trusses as shown. The color in the photograph is quite close to real and is quite stable from beginning to end and through cool and heat. It does not have much of a problem with our winters here either with the multiple freeze-thaw cycles. It is fairly sturdy. It is one of the few that I have more than one of in the garden. It is available from Hortico and Vintage Gardens. I would put it as one of my better oranges....See MoreHad hoped to post a picture of my rose garden!
Comments (2)yes...... Every year they attack my Belinda's Dream with a passion. This year is no different. I use Immunox. It works but usually the damage is done before I act. I also have a lemon tree that the white flies really love and this works on this also. I add a lot of liquid dish soap and not so much poison. Hope tis helps...........See Morejoeywyomingzone4

4 years agoI am not usually a fan of bright orange roses but my husband found this Mandarin Sunblaze on sale at Lowe's and brought it home for me to brighten a dreadful bout of morning sickness, so it has sentimental value, and in its stock tank it is doing a great job of perking up the patio. I do love that it stays constantly blooming until after the first snow falls, and the foliage is always an amazing glossy bright green.
