Comments (13)Yes, George Burns is striking. I wanted to add that I'm deliberately ignoring all the pics of Golden Celebration and Graham Thomas--because I'm totally envious and don't want to remember that they are too blackspot prone to dwell in my garden. I've loved both since they were introduced years ago--and yellow roses are my favorites--but I will not bring BSers into my garden. The only reason the BSer Gypsy Carnival resides here is because she snuck by me and was all settled in before I discovered the bad news about her weakness. : ( But I do actually love those pics.

Comments (50)I’ve been very impressed with my new roses this year, however many haven’t been truly tested yet. I have several standouts so far though. DA Buttercup. Look at the rich gold color on this bloom! Just lovely. It smells like honeysuckle which takes me right back to when I was a little girl running around all summer sipping on the sweet blooms. I purchased this one because my daughter’s nickname is Buttercup (I used to sing the ”My Little Buttercup” song from The Three Amigos to her when she was a baby 😋) but I am surprised how much I love this rose. It’s growing well in part shade and has not experienced any disease yet. This one is another surprise to me. Lover’s Blush from Heirloom. I’ve actually been reimbursed for this plant by Heirloom due to the amount of canker it arrived with but I decided to quarantine it in a container and see if I could pull it through. I still don’t know if it will survive but it managed this one stunning, huge bloom so far and I’ve made up my mind to replace it next year if it dies. This bloom is deeply cupped and packed with petals, and about 4” wide wide. It has a sweet floral/myrrh fragrance and while myrrh is not one that I like, there are enough other notes to pass the sniff test. Lady of the Mist. I purchased two of these because reviews stated how exceptionally this rose performed in part shade. That’s been true for me too. These two have put on a ton of new growth, even as own root, and nearly continually bloom. They receive about 4-5 hours of sun and pump out these gorgeous, strongly tea scented blooms. The drawback is that being in so much shade they are more susceptible to black spot and mildew but I hope that will improve with maturity....See MoreClimbing roses for a north facing wall
Comments (22)How cool, Mad - thanks for that link! I knew the eclipse would be total here in Nebraska and we were planning to drive to the western part of the state, but it turns out it'll be complete here as well and after school hours no less (starting 4:30 pm). We were going to pull the kids out of school for this but won't have to. Watch for it - August 21, 2017! And yes, that was a rose detour. On the original topic, I have about 50 roses on the north side of my house plus maybe twice that many in part shade in various locations. It's trial and error to see which roses can do well in those conditions, and you'll want to make sure the rose you pick is at least a zone hardier than your actual zone, since I've found the north and east sides of my house are zone 4 pockets where normal zone 5 roses won't survive. That cuts out Penny Lane, since it won't survive my normal zone 5 winters, and makes Madame Alfred Carriere a bit iffy. Mine survives just fine, but it only blooms on surviving cane and that only happens sometimes (and I have mine in a zone 6 pocket of my yard to boot). Furthermore, I only get one bloom cycle from in in the years that it has bloomed, and I've heard the same from some other northern gardeners. In its 7 years, it has probably only bloomed in two of those years. Several of the hybrid musks would do well in that location - even though they're only rated to zone 6 officially the following hybrid musks in cream colors survive fine for me in a normal zone 5 spot: Cornelia, Bouquet Parfait, Ghislaine de Feligonde, Guirlande d'Amour, and the intrepid Darlow's Enigma have survived well. All of these have climbing tendencies (may not cover an arch but will get 6' or more with support), though Darlow's Enigma is not really a climber but a big free-standing bush, both broad and tall. Sally Holmes and Clytemnestra both didn't overwinter a few years ago, but I'm trying again. Buff Beauty would be a nice rose for you and survived several years before fading in a non-ideal spot. No idea which ones are fragrant since I can't smell most roses. Here's a shot of several of the hybrid musks all in bloom - they're a loose cluster of blooms in general rather than single blooms, though Buff Beauty is the closest to a cutting rose among these. Here's Guirlande d'Amour in specific: There are several yellow hardy climbers that have larger blooms that would survive Ok in this location. Golden Celebration really wants more sun among Austins, but I have Teasing Georgia in a mostly shaded situation and it blooms reasonably well. Not that often, but I can get several good flushes in a good year. A more reliable yellow bloomer that would look nice against your house is Lunar Mist. It's related to Colette and is rock solid hardy for me. I have mine towards the east side of my house in part shade and it blooms all season, more or less like this: Among those that I grow, I'd probably suggest Lunar Mist, Buff Beauty, Darlow's Enigman, or Guirlande d'Amour as the most frequent bloomers. Roses Unlimited sells all of these I think, though Buff Beauty is available several places. A lovely spot for a rose and lots of options. Just remember as Mad Gallica says, any rose will bloom less and less often in a partly shaded spot than in full sun, so be sure to temper your expectations of having season-round blooms around your front door.

Comments (13)Hi Moses Excellent reasons for minimizing winter protection, since the point of having a hobby we enjoy is to, well, enjoy it. I still do some protection of laying filled leaf bags around the edge borders of my beds, as much as anything to keep the couple of inches of leaf mulch from blowing away over the winter. Like rifls, only the special roses get any special treatment of leaf bags stacked among them with some extra oak leaves dumped among them. For me oak leaves work well not to hold in moisture, but I'm in a dry climate so don't listen to me for the east coast. At least my winter protection methods are money free, if not exactly labor free. They do simplify my mulch all summer long, using free leftover bags of leaves. Now for my two cents on the roses you're no longer protecting: Will laugh off the cold, can't believe you ever protected it: Sweet Fragrance. Mine is mostly cane hardy in my zone 4 pocket, will have no trouble with zone 6 Hardy with at least some surviving cane for me in zone 5: Pretty Lady Rose, Bolero - loses most of its cane and not the fastest to grow back, but has survived several years Sister Emmanuelle - this one is probably also zone 4 hardy, since it gets big and has mostly surviving cane in a non-optimal spot. Has survived at least one winter in my zone 6 pocket: Chantal Merieux - I don't think this one would have a problem with zone 6 winters, and it'll probably have some surviving cane for you Miranda Lambert - probably a zone 6-7 rose but has survived OK for me, but is cut to the ground after winter Iffy at best in my virtual zone 6 but should be root hardy in a sunny south side of zone 6: Julia Child - I had a plant limp through a few winters in zone 5 spot but never more than a foot tall at the end of the season. I've replaced it in my zone 6 pocket with higher hopes Pope John Paul II - ditto to everything for Julia Child, except he limped through at a foot tall in my virtual zone 6 (probably) Dame de Coeur - didn't overwinter in a typical zone 5 spot but it was robust enough to be optimistic for root survival in zone 6. I haven't liked it enough to want to try it again. Kentucky Derby is a much better HT in that color range, and even Black Magic survives better with much nicer dark red color I have never been able to overwinter even in virtual zone 6 and maximal protection: Purple Prince Apricot Candy Princess Charlene of Monaco (but mine might have been a poor plant to start with) Not sure yet (mine is just facing its first winter): Moonlight Romantica. In general I find the Romanticas to be relatively tender and need my virtual zone 6, with some of them like Liv Tyler absolutely refusing to overwinter, and most of them regrowing slowly if they survive. If yours isn't a strong plant going into winter, put it on the hospice watch too. So my entirely biased opinion is that all the roses you list have a good to excellent prognosis without protection in zone 6 except for Purple Prince, Apricot Candy, PCoM and maybe Moonlight Romantica. For the 20 or so roses you list, that isn't many to have on hospice watch. I replace a good third of my roses every year, including some that have survived several winters, so you're beating my odds. I wouldn't consider any of your roses doomed, and don't give up on them until June rolls around as the ones that are marginal survivors can take until June to come back from being pruned to the ground. I find that repeated winter kills have worn down many of my grafted roses in particular over about 8-10 years, so even some that have survived fine in other years might inexplicably not come back the next year. In my estimation, protection doesn't save them when they've lost access to any more growing points to resprout basal canes after losing them in the winter. Some grafted roses will be here forever though - my Quadra is grafted and nothing short of nuclear holocaust is liable to stop him from coming back after winter. So it is what it is, but I wouldn't be gloomy over the winter. I predict you'll lose just enough roses to give you an opportunity to plant the new ones you want to try. Gotta see things in a positive light... Cynthia...See Moredianela7bnorthal

Here is a picture after tying up both roses. GDA was finishing her flush in this picture but is now gearing up again. She can definitely be a climber in this Zone she's putting out New Growth all the time.
