Verry pretty! Love that TATTOOED DAUGHTER!!

Beth, they are all wonderful and look so healthy.

Do you do anything special to keep them looking like that?

I only have a couple of minis - one unknown red is about the open (will be the first in the garden) but is unfortunately already showing signs of BS. I won't get rid of it though - it was a mother's day gift from our daughter about five years ago.

Those are too cute!!!

sutekesh, I have to admit these are all new to me this year. I've only had them since the first of March. They all seem to be healthy and growing strong. They are all outside and in pots on the patio. They are planted in good potting mix and get 8 hours of sun a day.

Everything I know about taking care of them is in large part a tribute to Seil. She has guided me through almost every step in their care.

I do have a few of the grocery store minis and none of them are as healthy as the others. Right now they are all defoliating because of black spot but all of the ones from nurseries aren't showing much of a problem at all.

Thanks Beth, maybe the problem is the that the grocery store minis are more like 'throw-away' roses and the ones from the nurseries better suited to a garden enviroment. I planted five bareroot minis last fall, Little Sunset, Little Artist, Bluenette, Charmant and Sun Baby. None have flowered yet but no BS on any of them.

Hope mine turn out like yours:) I really like your Carnival Glass!

All beauties but I love that Fancy Pants!

Fancy Pants is very pretty. If the rain doesn't beat it to death tonight I'll get a picture in a day or two when it is open.

Love your minis--a bunch of cuties!

A 2nd on Tattooed Daughter!

They all look great!

Lloyd them mini's! Dr. Gary Rankin and Lighthouse so tempting!

I'm a big fan of minis and minifloras, so I love looking at your pics!
