My builder uses Houzz Pro to plan the timeline and give detailed estimates and daily updates with photos of progress, and provide invoices at pre-agreed key points in the build. This made the whole experience much more efficient and stress-free.

more zone 9 first blooms

9 years ago

Tournament of Roses - florif. dependable, almost no disease, lasts cut

Chicago Peace bud on Mar. 31

on April 1, (same bud)

April 2, bud opened, more gorgeous than this in person.

Brilliant Pink Iceberg - 1st to bloom this year, other 2 blooms ugly.

Lagerfield - mercy, very violet pink!!! On March 31.

Same bud slowly opening, April 2, normal color now.

I hadn't realized Chicago P. was such a fast opener, nor that Lagerfield was this slow. We're in the low 70's. At night 49 to 52 F..

    A few more are opening.

    Sorry this needs clicking on to be right size. Wanted to show Abraham Darby's companions.

    Abraham Darby not being a baby pink. Last spring, ugh.

    My regular visiting gopher hunter.

    Colette - soft apricot this spring, Cl.

    Secret - camera not catching the pink, very frag.

    Sonia's foliage. I knew she needed a spring spray, but leaf miners?
    Bad girl. First time I've seen them on rose foliage.

    Ending with Tournament of Roses, same bloom as the top one, but 4 days later.
