Rose combo

19 years ago

Hey everyone, I just wanted to pick your brains for a second! My DH has put up a nice redwood arbor over our sidewalk out in the front yard and I'm unsure about what to plant. I already have a climbing new dawn that I need to move into more sun, so I will probably put it on one side of the arch. On the other side I was contemplating a new rose I've seen called night owl. I thought these two might look good together, since I have seen new dawn paired with purple clematis and the colors go really well. I'm just not sure about the actual color of night owl, you know how pictures in catalogs can be a little deceptive! So what do y'all think?

I had one just like that in my former garden. You've inspired me to set up a new one in my new yard.

Very nice combo! Thanks for sharing your pic with us. You can do a search on www.helpmefind.com, under the roses search category to probably find more pics of Night Owl. We just planted three New Dawns on the posts of the soon to built pergola. Such pretty blooms, and they smell wonderful!

Thank you all for helping me to make up my mind! I went ahead with the New Dawn and Night Owl Roses on my arbor. Now I have to find something to do with EV Clematis. I just had a feeling it would get swallowed by the New Dawn eventually, from what I have read/seen she is vigorous! I'll try to post pictures when they get going. Thanks again!

I've grown ND and it gets huge. I also grow EV. Since the flowers aren't huge on it, I agree it would probably get swallowed up by ND. But you might try a larger flowering clem, like Ernest Markham. I think its magenta color would look wonderful with ND.
