Availability of Crimson Glory?

4 years ago

last modified: 4 years ago

I’ve been trying to find where Crimson Glory would be available for the spring 2020 season. I haven’t contacted Roses Unlimited yet, not sure if they will have it or not. Also, would it possibly be available grafted from anywhere?

I did see it grafted a couple of years ago at Lowe's. I'm still kicking myself for not getting it, but you've given me an "AHA" moment in that I should ask my friendly Lowe's manager if she can order that in. She has told me she'll try to get Quicksilver this Spring.

Thank you vaporvac! i just saw Hortico mentioned in the title of another thread and I checked their website, they have it. I rarely order from them, but I guess I could give it a try.

When I visited Nick at Heritage Rosarium last October, I fell in love with his climbing Crimson Glory. He gave me a rose from the plant that I kept as close to my nose as possible for several days. I LOVE the fragrance. Once the bloom faded, I stuck the stem in a pot with the slim hope that it would root. It appeared to be doing fairly well and the buds seemed to be swelling as if they were going to sprout leaves. But a few days ago I noticed it had turned black at the soil line. I just ordered Cl. Crimson Glory along with Nahema from Roses Unlimited to grow on the privacy fence next to my hot tub. I received a confirmation letter from Pat that they have been reserved for me. HHRD Does any one grow Nahema? Kathy

Climbing vs bush form of Crimson Glory

I have Cl Crimson Glory on its own roots. I rooted it from a cutting I took about 10 years ago from what I think was a really old plant (perhaps planted in the 1940s or 50s). It is not a really tall climber - gets about 10 feet tall (or it would, except I have it on a rose folly and then it goes part way up an arch). It is healthy and gorgeous, and does re-bloom several times a Summer. Bloom is not heavy, but the individual blooms are amazingly beautiful and stunningly fragrant. I hardly have any HTs, and don't much like red roses, but I love climbers, which is why I took a cutting of this one. Now it is one of my favorite roses in our garden. I have never seen the bush form - does anyone know how it grows? Jackie

Is it nice to trick a rose in this way? Yes, I think so. The end justifies the means.

We are up in the hills northwest of Portland and grow this vine. I highly recommend it, and growing it on a pergola sounds ideal. Be sure it has full sun to get the most spectacular color. And if you have any small children or pets, tell them not to stand still beside it or it will wrap them in its tentacles! Seriously, it will latch onto other plants, furniture, garden art, etc. We have had no problem with staining or other mess and I have seen no fruit.

Thank you Kristine. I’m planning on getting the Bush form, but I’ve read good things about the climbing one. Burlington is a good nursery, she’s always so nice.

Thank you for the enabling should Lowe's not be able to get this in stock. I remember reading that Burling have it but totally forgot. I got my climbing version from a r e and it's a lovely rose which is why I want the bush form at its feet. Sarah Ann.

I am waiting for our shop to be built so that I have a place for the climber.

The rose that she sent was so healthy and it took right off
