Can Ville de Lyon take hot sun?
Comments (8)Thanks for the input on Ville de Lyon and Prince Charles. I'm a little worried for both of them since where they are planted is a "hot spot" in the gardens, but I had to destroy a climbing rose growing there (due to Rose Rosette Disease). Prince Charles has been growing there for several years, but never that happy even though it got some shade fromt he climbing rose. I couldn't bear seeing Prince Charles growing all by itself there--which is when I got the idea of another clematis to keep him company -- and maybe provide a bit of shade also? Dunno how this will work out or even if I want it to be a permanent fixture there, but if they like the togetherness and can survive the hot sun, I think that might be a speciall place in the garden even without the climbing rose. I will have to keep a close eye on them so they don't dry out, won't I, and give PC a little midsummer snack might be a good idea. Thanks for your help.

Comments (30)So far, Darcey Bussell has been my best DA performer. She’s not a favorite, only because I prefer softer colors. She remains “fairly” compact, relative to most DA’s here. She never seems to mind pruning, no matter when or how often. She blooms all the time and makes a better cut flower than most DA’s. I don’t get any disease on her here, although Embothrium has big problems with something like downey mildew on Darcey Bussell. I don’t think that’s in a dry Mediterranean climate, though. Mine is always healthy and happy. She’s in a rather small bed, so she’s cut back often. She doesn’t receive more water than anything else does, and doesn’t seem to need it. My soil is clay, so it does retain water well and is full of nutrients. Abraham Darby on the other hand, DOES want extra water here. I have never experienced rust(other than on hollyhocks), until recently. I’d been very busy over the past month or so, and must have slacked off on watering, just a little. Nobody minded except for AD. This, combined with the wind and 3-5% humidity produced a spectacular case of rust on Abraham Darby. Even though I’ve never seen rust on my roses before, it’s so bad that there’s no mistaking what it is. I’m not even sure what to do about it. I’m giving him lots of extra water, and thinking of pruning him down to almost the ground. I’m worried about spreading the rust, even while pruning. Last night, I went out late to move the hose with my headlamp on. I removed a spent bloom from AD, and in the light beam I could see tiny dust like particles floating off. I can only assume they were rust particles. I fear that while pruning the rust will blow everywhere. So AD definitely wants extra water. He’s brought me my first case of rust on a rose bush. And oh yes, of course, he grows huge in our kind of climate. Lisa...See MoreNo morning sun, hot hot afternoon sun zone 6b
Comments (19)The boards on that fence look suspiciously like green wood to me, unless they have been protected with something. A fence like that wouldn't last long in western Ks, not with our wind. Also I can't tell if they are wood posts or covered with wood. At least you got the pretty side. I have a new shadow fence on the south side of my yard, 6 ft is our limit, but since every yard on this block drops a foot, it is really 7 feet. The reason for this fence is I'm trying to block out all the soccor balls that find their way into my yard. What a nuisance, last year I lost a lot of my vege plants, and have a broken tree peony, a flying soccor ball can do a lot of damage, and now another pest has invaded. I think every child around me got a drone for Christmas, Of course they don't know how to control them, so I'm constantly having to fish one out of shrubs ect. This is going to be a whole new way to garden along this fence. I've been watching the shadow line for a month now, and trying to figure how much sun I will have, of course it will be ever changing as the season progresses. I'm hoping I can plant daylilys and clematis this spring, I need to break up this 100 foot of new thats staring at me. half of the 100 feet will be in my vege garden. I'm afraid I've built myself a gardening nightmare. Help!...See MoreFragrant Climbing Rose Recommendations for Hot/Dry climate
Comments (9)I might ask Burling for recommendations and also check the old posts by Cori Ann. She grew MANY climbers and documented which ones did best in full sun, etc. Here is her HMF so you can look up those she grows. https://www.helpmefind.com/gardening/l.php?l=3.24840 Falstaff did particularly well along with Florentina. She also grows many as climbers such as First Crush....See Moreginjj
