I am very taken with Yorkshire Bank but don't think it is available here. Chicago Peace is already on my wish list.  That rose bed must be magnificent when they bloom. |
The D is Die Welt and the Z is Zitronenjette. Your right and the majority of them are hybrid teas. Kordes has introduced a new "Fairy Tale" rose that is suppose to be for the enviromentally conscious and/or time constricted rose lover
so my Queen of Hearts is a Fairy Tale and is absolutely a beautiful double colored rose.
J A MacDonald is a stunning HT too. Stands for Sir John A MacDonald and produces at least flushes during the summer/fall.
????? Do you put mulch (bark) on your roses? I never have in the past and am thinking of doing it this spring to hold back on all the weeds!
If you do, what kind of chips/bark would you suggest?
