NICOLE FREELANDER

NOBILO'S CHARDONNAY

Ohhh! Lovely, lush-us N's.

Beth, would you recommend Neil Diamond for bouquets?

NEIL DIAMOND would be great in bouquets. The blooms are rather large and last a long time. I seem to remember it has a nice scent too.

Beth, That Natasha Monet is mesmerizing! I love the splashy Night Sky and the dark red Night Time and Night & Day.

I don't have many N's:

Nicole Carol Miller (new for me last year, but so far, I'm really pleased with her):

Natchitoches Noisette (only second year with this one, but already very much a favorite...I highly recommend NN if you are in a warm enough zone to grow a noisette)

New Face (new last year...got it (as a band) because of its supposed shade tolerance...didn't bloom any once the trees leafed out giving it only dappled sun...but it's just a baby, so time will tell)

Beth, I can't believe you have so many N roses.
For me, there is only one, a mini I got last summer. It is less pink than my photo, really a deep purple. I am excited to see it this year, that is, if we have any water for our roses. It is
Night Owl

Keep on posting--I'm enjoying these, but just discovered I don't have an "N" rose anywhere in my garden!

Niles Cochet

I love Night Owl's white eye, Kathy And Brittie, your Niles is absolutely gorgeous!

Oh Beth...that picture of Neil Diamond is lovely! I have ordered two, one from Rosemarie and one from RU. Can`t wait to grow this rose. Lesley

These are lovely! Since I have no Ns, the only letter I'm missing since New Zealand bit the dust, I'm writing down some names to get here. I have Neil Diamond coming this spring for sure.

Some great Ns here! I particularly love Night Owl and Nimbus.

Here's another shot of Nantucket, new to me this past year. I really loved the subtle colours and found there was quite a bit of variation between apricot and pink. Huge blooms too!

New Day -- this one is not a strong grower but I love the delicate yellow and it has nice form sometimes!

New Dawn Climber top left -- with some friends!

Also have New Year but can't find any pics!

The Natasha Monet is beautiful, Beth! I had her for a few years but I think she is too delicate for my zone and she did not make it through last winter :(

Add me to the list that have Neil Diamond on order, can't wait! Mine is coming from Edmunds. Love those stripes!

Andrea

How nice to have some of the bushes included, this way the bloom size is much easier to imagine.

well, this is not exactly an N rose, but it is a child of one...here is my 8 month old seedling of Cl. New Year.... When I moved, i was unable to bring my Climbing New Year and could not find a new one for sale...so i took some hips and some hope.....

There are some LUVELY roses here!!

My roses are

1. Night Owl
2. Nicole Carole Miller
3. Night Owl
4. New Zealand (3rd year and still no scent)

By the way, how can I get my text to stay at the top. It went in the middle. So I ended up putting it at the end instead.

Hello Carol - so glad you found the Rose Gallery!

Not sure about the text - people have been having different experiences depending on browser. I use Chrome on my laptop and have no issues (I can type where I like within comments and navigate around the photos), but I have a default browser active on my Samsung phone, and it puts all the text at the top and photos at the bottom when displaying these comment strings.

The pictures here of Nicole Carol Miller have had me running to HMF to investigate further. How long have you had yours and how do you find it does through the winter? I know you over-winter in your garage, but do you have any thoughts on it's potential hardiness? I'm a couple zones higher than you - I'm 5b. And speaking of, I hear from my mom and sister that Calgary's been having crazy temperature fluctuations lately; nice and warm for a few days, then right down below zero again. I couldn't help thinking about your roses! I hope they don't try to break dormancy too early!

Karen

Being in the garage, my roses aren't bothered by temperature fluctuations. I have to snap off any new nubbins of growth - but that's all.

Yes, it's quite warm here. There's no snow (or barely any) Yet when I went to Edmonton to visit relatives, they had two feet of snow!!

Anyway, Nicole Carol Miller is a strong grower. It gets very big (even in a pot). It gets a lot of flowers. Being such a tough rose, maybe it could be overwintered outside - but I don't really know.

It has a wonderful smell and is well worth trying. :)

Carol

Kathy, I think you meant to say your mini is Diamond Eyes. It is a decedent of the climber, Night Owl.
