Well, isn't that interesting. Please show the blooms when they open, How unusual !

Since Marlorena mentioned this, I went out and checked my baby Vanessa Bell. It does get long sepals.

Hi -

VB for me, seems to be the one that is doing the most growth day-by-day in the brand new rose bed with all new BR DA plantings. Easily 2X than all the others

Rose Lai... no, yours is fine, that's how mine is too... I just shaded it a bit to get the photos... the foliage is a light fresh green,... I think it's very beautiful..

Thanks Marlorena. The
foliage is indeed beautiful.

a1an: VB is
very vigorous, probably one of the fastest growing new Austin I planted in Feb
this year. The other vigorous ones are the Ancient Mariner, Olivia, Roald Dahl
and Desdemona.

Amanda: I
don't know that rooster likes rose buds! Don’t worry they will grow back soon....I am sure.

Very elegant sepals, Marlorena, and the foliage is nice as well!

No where close to getting blooms yet, but ha, loving the color of the foliage of it's lime-green nature. Should be nice color contrast against the VB color scheme.
