Boscobel (trying out the edit function to add more since they come out larger than they do by adding them in the comments).


Edited to add that it will not let me add anymore by editing :(

    They are all beautiful. I'm so jealous of your Eden. Mine will never get that large here. Distant Drums is also quite stunning. How is it for disease resistance in your area? What zone are you in?

    I am in zone 7. I have 4 Distant Drums. The one in the photo is the only one doing well. Two of them are questionable if they are going to make it. This one is a grafted one I bought online from Edmund's Roses. The other 3 are own root I bought online from Northland Rosarium. They were very small since they are own root, and 2 of them are struggling. The third one is a doing a little bit better. This fourth one though is doing excellent.

    I tried to grow this rose many years ago but it died. It seems to be a difficult rose, but I love the colors so much that I'm willing to try again. I usually only buy own root roses and they usually do really well but these 3 are being difficult.

    Olivia , your roses are stunning! I’m sorry I missed this earlier , I’m havinga heck of a time with the forums . Your Eden is something to envy .. I also don’t think mine will ever look that great! You have done so well ! Thank you for sharing your lovely roses !

    Oh wow!!!!! Olivia - you sure can grow superb roses!!! My favorite is the line of roses along the fence and your Blueberry Hill next to Julia's Child!!! Oh swoon, get up, and swoon again!!!

    Just to compare...LOL...my potted Munstead Wood is about 8 inches high after 3 years. It's going bye-bye at the end of this year if it doesn't do significantly better.

    Thank you for sharing these beautiful roses with us!!

    Your roses are beautiful. I envy the overall size of them. And you have a very nice variety too!

    Such beautiful and healthy roses! I'd pick them all as my favorites, except you do have some gorgeous Munstead Wood photos in there, and it always trumps all other roses when it comes to the most beautiful blooms!

    Yes, wonderful Eden. And I like Scepter'd Isle also.

    Gorgeous roses.

    My distant Drums own root died after it's third year. I even moved it this spring to a better sunnier spot.

    Koko look own root died too this summer. I think both of these have to be grafted. My KL grafted on Fort in a pot in a lot of shade blooms non stop.

    Olivia, I apologize if you explained in another post, but what is your fertilizer regimen? And what kind of soil do you have? Do you have a lot of humidity? Do you spray fungicides?

    All of your roses look so beautiful and healthy

  • 8 years ago

    My goodness but your roses are GORGEOUS! What are you feeding them, rose steroids?? I am so impressed with the size of all your roses they are absolutely beautiful. Quiteness is one of my favorite roses and yours is amazing. The Faun is stunning too! I’m sooo jealous lol. Great job!
