Comments (5)I was perusing one of my favorite rose blogs, and stumbled upon the book reference and You Tube video. I later noticed that the book was the topic of a thread from last year. I clearly missed the previous forum posting, and posted the information for anyone unfamiliar with the book or video. One thing I noticed is that there seems to be a Women in my Garden book released by the publisher in 2014, and one from earlier this year. I am sooo busy, and have not found the time to research the difference if there is any??? I enjoyed the video content and learned how to "properly" pronounce some of the rose names. My second language knowledge etc. is Spanish, which is not particularly helpful for so many French names. Lynn...See MoreMy first rose garden, my first rose posting
Comments (34)Hi Sophia, I can give little input on repetition. I don't pay attention to that here in non-winter land. Poor Abraham Darby got suckers from his Dr. Huey root stock after 4 yrs. and I thought they were the octopus canes I'd read about. By the time I figured it out they had taken over. I battle them every year (difficult access). Poor Abe is now only 3 feet high but in my climate grows easily to 6 feet +. Dr Huey is stealing nutrients and water. Large petal packed wafting uber fragrant blooms. Some blackspot in a non-spray garden. Evelyn is in the path of the wind. She has a lovely spring flush (no winds) and sporadic bloom thereafter (regular winds). No blackspot this year on either as yet. Disease wise I'd say they're equal here (very little). Evelyn's blooms are probably the same diameter as Abe's but not as deep. I keep her under 5 feet with pruning. A 7 ft. arching cane appeared after 6 or 8 years. Colors - Abe is usually a pink fully infused with peach-yellow-mango. Full bodied oomphy color. Lasts no more than 3 days in a bouquet. In Sept. mine changes to a warm medium pink, not as peachy as spring but never bluey-pink. A boring everyday color. In Nov. it is back to a prettier peachy pink. Evelyn, ah Evelyn. The pink dawn touched by sunlight? Not pink, not peach, but a sophisticated blend on gossamer satin petals. I think it is the delicate iridescence that captivates. If I could only have one rose bloom a year it would be her. So you see I am terribly prejudiced and pay little attention to the bush....See More2022-2025 MY FAVORITE OLD GARDEN ROSES
