Nor'East Minis Sale
Comments (2)I popped over there yesterday evening to see what I could add to my Ralph Moore collection. I bought: Buttermint Cafe Ole Little Emma Little Eskimo Iced Tea Ralph's Creeper Scarlet Moss Secret Recipe Simplex Woodstock and Yellow Doll. I'm such a huge fan of Ralph Moore and his roses, I had to be sure I ordered the rest of the ones I wanted from Nor-East before they go wholesale....See MoreFavorite Class of Rose ?
Comments (63)Remy, You can relax about GST. We all know that he was a very gifted but also very opinionated author. Come to think about it so are most rosarians. We are a passionate people. One thing I know for sure: when reading rose books look first where the author gardens and compare the climate/soil with your own. Most rose books produced in this country are written by rosarians in California. Good examples are Clair Martin (100 Old Roses for the American Garden), Rayford Clayton Reddell (The Rose Bible) and Carolyn Parker (R is for Rose). I love their books but have to take their advice with a grain of salt. Ain't no way my Mid-Atlantic climate and acidic clay soil is like their California/Mediterranean climate and alkaline clay soil. I used to envy the California rosarians with their long growing seasons and perfect florest quality blooms but they can't grow Austins nearly as well as I can. Same goes for some of the antique roses. Sometimes having winters is a good thing. Best wishes, Patrick...See MoreIs there a perfect purple rose?
Comments (80)I hope I’m not flooding the thread with photos! Purple roses are my thing, and all of the purples I have posted are nigh perfect in my garden! Munstead Wood is a color exception to this category in that it is usually redder than it is purple. (I actually love red and purple growing side by side or cohabitating in a bouquet.) Munstead is thorny but gorgeous, deliciously scented and healthy for me. I honestly highly recommend each and every one of these purple roses that might fit your requirements and thrive in your climate. They have all been fantastic floral performers and tough, healthy plants! I am hunting for some more shots of gorgeous Barden purples like Ellen Tofflemire and Rook as well as pics of Reine des Violettes and Cardinal de Richelieu.
