Noisettes/Climbing teas -please help me choose!
Comments (19)Joanna, My tolerance for BS and leaf loss may be higher than yours, but, I'll say what I've seen so far... The wichuriannas are near perfect...Paul Transon repeats a little. Blush Noisette is not looking good...spotty and leafloss, but, I believe it will take time to get going. Lamarque- some mildew, slow to get going, no bs MAC-some bs, some leafloss (30%) Crepuscule - succumbed to the goats...will get another Reve D'Or- may be mislabled, no diseases on what i've got Mme. G. Staechlin- no diseases, vigorous, once bloomer Blush Noisette- yucky so far Celine Forrestier- slow to get going, no problems yet Ghislaine de Feligonde-near perfect...heavy first flush and flowers the rest of the year off an on.. Aimee Vibert-don't have Gloire de Dijon-some spots, 50% leaf loss, succombed to goats, it has been replaced Souvenir de Mme. Leonie Viennot (not sure about this one)died after being moved...no problems when I had it SDLM (worried this may ball in my humid/hot climate)- so far so good, no major problems William A. Richardson -just starting to take off, no sign of disease Desprez a Fleurs Jaunes-just starting out, too soon to comment Duchesse D'Auerstadt-same as Jaune Desprez Sombreuil-some spots, 30% leaf loss Lady Hillingdon, cl- don't have it yet Paul Lede (disease?) don't have it yet Cramoisi Superieur, cl -no disease yet plus: Clair Matin some spots, 10% leaf loss, blooms constantly...a must have rose I hope this helps some. I'm really finding out that you've got to try the roses for yourself and see what you're willing to tolerate and what you're unwilling to tolerate. If a rose is vigorous and blooms and loses some leaves, I'm thrilled. I'm growing clematis through all these roses, so if they lose 50% of the leaves, and it doesn't slow the rose down, I'm fine with it. I will NOT spray.

Comments (21)I finally e-mailed Gregg since I hadn't received confirmation of my order before it was opened for general purchase, and he answered promptly and thanked me for naming so many alternates, which leads me to believe that I won't be getting the rose I really wanted....oh well. At least it will be interesting to have a rose that hasn't been grown here before. Apparently they're quite backed up because Gita is now working only every other week. Ingrid...See MoreSomebody finally said what I'd been thinking!! Funny CL ad
Comments (150)ROTFLMAO! I didn't know there was a thread going on about this. It's about time somebody mentioned this! I LOL daily when I peruse the CL's ads. Where are these people coming from? People, proof your ads before you hit that "submit" button. I really LOL when they list an appliance for sale that is so filthy and then they say "would really look nice when cleaned up". Well, duh, clean it up before you take the picture and heck, you might actually "sale" it! I'm glad somebody posted this thread, I've been thinking the very same thing for months. LOL Now I think I'll go have a looky at Craig's list and see if I can find me sum of them thar anteek chester draws....See MoreCL: Tripple ornate mirror
Comments (17)It is a very unique style mirror, not one which can be used in just any home~Pottery Barn furniture, not. Paint might give it a more modern look if that's what you want, but could also end up looking like one of those cheap ones with the plastic frame. IMO, it would look best in a home that's eclectic with a few vintage/antique pieces of furniture, a traditional style, or even French Country. I have a 'trip tic' type mirror also, but it's rectangular. I paid $100 at a consignment store. I was told it came with a buffet, but someome warned just the buffet and not the mirror. Lucky me, (the pink you see is the cover of my tablet)...See Moreportlandmysteryrose
