Re: A few of my roses 16/10/11

I know Wendy.
I also talked David into getting me just on 400 Gladdie bulbs this year so I probably shouldn't push my luck.

by AutumnDamask 2nd November 2011, 21:34

And his list is getting shorter...? Razz

The Steptoe Rose Hospital out the back must be going well too... Wink

hehe

Wendy, the list I posted is only of about 5 that I have. I guess I could post the names of most of DA's roses. How many Rugosa's are there. I could try for all the Damasks as well. My wish list has a rose in it called ' infinety' roflmao

by AutumnDamask 3rd November 2011, 06:02

And then there are these people that keep breeding new roses.
There is no hope for us, is there?

Isn't funny how easily we get sidetracked on certain threads. but all good fun IMO.
On "your" available land how many roses can you plant, or is it going to 'buy' Sumaria instead lol!

by AutumnDamask 3rd November 2011, 06:55

Oh, there is plenty of room here. Just the minor practalities of water, mulch, pests (rabbits, sheep, alpaca, horses...) and weeds to deal with if I extend much further at the moment. Razz

And just to get us back On Topic... LOL
Paris 2000 (?)

Paris 2000, looks good scratch

till I read it was a floribunda, sorry. Wedding Day, has very good potential.
I wonder if it would look good with 'Meg' scratch

Wendy I will send PM/email tonight, regards David.

by AutumnDamask 3rd November 2011, 12:54

Hmmm. I suspect a Wedding Day x Meg would not be a case of "this rose is a house eater" but, in fact, "this rose eats the whole BLOCK"...

And... you have something against floribundas?? It's a very fertile little mummy too.... got a bunch of seedlings from her last year. Wink

'Wedding Day' is like 'Mermaid' Wink

by The Lazy Rosarian 3rd November 2011, 15:51

So 'Wedding Day' is good if it is like 'Mermaid', a wonderfull rose lol!

Carole has just said both are off my wish list.
No wendy, I do like a 'lot' of floribundas, some like 'Iceberg' are out

What gorgeous roses. Do they have any scent?

by AutumnDamask 3rd November 2011, 19:57

Any ones in particular? The last 2 don't have a lot of scent.

by Guest 3rd November 2011, 20:02

The pink one. It's gorgeous Smile

by AutumnDamask 3rd November 2011, 20:11

Yeah, that Paris doesn't really have much scent. Sad

A little "rosey" and that is it.
Not like most of the roses on the first page of this thread. Smile

by Guest 3rd November 2011, 20:23

Well it's absolutely stunning Smile

by The Lazy Rosarian 3rd November 2011, 20:27

Wendy, just as promised Email sent, sorry to thread jack again Brainwash

by AutumnDamask 8th November 2011, 17:34

Such a beautiful rose.. I'd love a repeat flowering version of it!

by RitaG 8th November 2011, 21:17

Looks like the bees love it as well. Wish I had room for it.

by AutumnDamask 8th November 2011, 21:22

The bees adore this rose. When I woke at 5.45am that's the first thing I heard.... hundreds of bees outside my bedroom window!

What a shame it's off your list David... I've got a spare one...

by Admin 8th November 2011, 21:54

Wendy, I have a spare plant of what I'm calling Rosa longicuspis var sinowilsonii.. would you like it to grow and compare to this one? Is a house eater too though

by AutumnDamask 9th November 2011, 05:59

I do have a spot ... do you think it would mound okay over a (very) large stump? I'd love to put it on the garden fence but then I would have to rig something up to stop the sheep eating it.

by The Lazy Rosarian 9th November 2011, 06:03

The sheep will only eat their side which will make it easier for you at pruning time roflmao

by rosemeadow 9th November 2011, 13:12
