David Austin Rose - Desdemona (3rd year)

5 years ago

It's a healthy and dependable rose, bloom in flushes. The humid climate here doesn't ruin the blooms like some other DA roses (Poet's Wife, Charles Darwin, etc...)

So extra specially nice. Mine was great her first year, but has started to disappoint in the last couple years. Yours looks more like my Wollerton Old Hall, which I LOVE. In fact, I got Wollerton just in case I decide to SP Desdemona. You've motivated me to give her some extra attention this year. She is a heavy drinker, so probably needs more nutrients, too.

It is easy to love Desdamona isn't it Nose.

Hoang, you have done such a stellar job in your garden. Everything is so well kept

I thought of you and your garden last night as I was weeding and cleaning up my memorial bed. You inspired me with your clean well organized beds. I just love the look of everything that you have done
