Classic Rose Row


Classic Rose Row

The line up of roses on this bush, the rain came and knocked them all about a few days later. This was about all I got. It had a hard time after planting it, but has recovered very well.

Unusual to get them to appear in a row.

Thank you. When I planted this, the bottom portion of soil was just missing! I wasn't sure I'd get much at all. I got one with only half the petals. Then this row, just two or three stems with a few flowers each. I do hope it overwinters, its really been lovely to watch grow. :-) I've gotten cold weather rose tips from Gilli that are working great!

Thank you. I was expecting a much more white rose, but I like this fine. Fingers crossed on living through the winter. :-)

Beautiful GT. Good luck with the over wintering. Lots of mulch and hopefully a good deep snow cover should do the trick. I'm crossing my fingers too.

Thank you. I put this in a little deeper than the other as it seems a little more tender and I always make a nice pile for them in winter. When I pulled it out of its pot to plant, part of the pot was empty and there was very little root. But I got it this far through the summer, so fingers crossed.....(as always)..lol

Somebody did a poor potting job when they put it in the pot GT. That's a shame but it must have put out some strong roots since you planted it to put out such a lovely display.

The first flower was just above ground and only half formed. Then it grew and started this row. I think it has rooted well. Now we'll just see if a hybrid tea overwinters. :-)
