These roses were the perfect accent for the brickwork at the end of my driveway. I don't ever make the walk down to water them and they survived a very dry summer. The blooms are beautiful and really make a statement. I wish all roses could be this easy!
These plants are FABULOUS! I cannot grow a rose - too much attention needed and they always get disease. These truly are disease resistant and all the other statements by Springhill Nursery are true. I tried to grow this in a pot (probaby too small) and finally took it and stuck it in the ground and it has taken off. Has grown very well and the flowers are plentiful and beautiful. I'm trying to figure out where to put more of them!! LOVE THEM!
I bought three of these in 1996 and planted them. When we moved, I put one in a barrel planter with the intention of replanting at our new house. Several moves later it is still in that planter and still blooming every year - it's not beautiful to look at but it's still alive, I'm sure if I had left it alone it would be big and full. The flowers are still big and smell good, the plant is just a little scrawny looking and considering what I've put it through that's ok. If you are hesitant because you tend to kill rose bushes, this is definitely the type for you to get, they really are hardy!
Ordered 6 roses for the backyard, they came bareroot. All are doing great and am surprised out how quickly they took. Looking forward to seeing how they develop over the summer.
I just planted these a week ago and there is already substantial growth on them!! The weather has been ideal since I planted them but still I can't believe it, everyday I go to check on them and there is something new going on. I can't wait to see them after a full season.
I am not good at growing most things-- too much care required, and then I accidentally step them, or the dog will trample them, etc. These roses do very well, no matter how often the dog breaks off branches or I forget to water them. Twice now I thought I killed them, but they just keep coming back with lovely pink blooms.
I bought these 2 seasons ago on a shopping network, my first attempt at roses. Every word in their description is true. Easy care, no pests, everblooming, by the second season I probably had 1,000 flowers over 4 months. I highly recommend these.
