Peach and Apricot roses

This is such a great color category for me. I have four separate peaches and cream beds because there are so many roses that fit into this group because of fading.

    Boy, you werent kidding about having lots of this color.

    I am happy to see that you have Desiree. I got her last year because of Lilyfinches glowing recommendation.

    'Apricot Glow', pretty much bullet-proof and easy to grow, once-bloomer but stays in bloom for at least a month, smells like apples, and, unfortunately, no longer in commerce in North America, according to HMF:

    @oursteelers 8B PNW Nice to see "Rock Hill Peach"! I tried it here but it was a martyr to PM, where I had it, at least.

  • 2 years ago

    Oh, I love the peachy tones! Here is Spirit of the Republic this past summer.

  • 2 years ago

    Too many good ones!

  • 2 years ago

    Wow... every one of these pictures is lovely. I have to look some up such as Desiree, Antico Amore, Soul Sister..have checked out that one before but didn't know it could make such a good plant, Apricot Glow , Apricot Candy. How does The Lady Gardener do for you?


    I wish Burling could get cuttings of Apricot Glow . Spirit of the Republic is gorgeous too...is it from Mike Shoup?

  • 2 years ago

    Star of the Republic is from Mike Shoup.

    The Lady Gardener is doing well. Fragrance and blooms are good but my favorite thing about this is the excellent shape. Probably seems a strange thing to be excited about but it’s a fairly new plant to my garden and I swear every cane is growing at the exact same speed with perfect spacing. Weird.

    I don’t know anything about Peach Perfection. Details?

    It probably blooms heavier than any other rose I have. it’s a Jalbert rose also called Catherine Hershey. I adore it, but it can get bad blackspot in the summer and the heat of midsummer can cause it to fade out to a dull beige with an open brown center.


    I got it from Palatine several years ago and it about 3 to 3.5 ft tall and probably 4 ft wide. It is unscented, but the color is beautiful and it has the lovely Jalbert ruffles.

    To me Buff Beauty always takes the prize. Here in the Brooklyn Botanic Garden, since I don't have it.

    My favorite color in roses. I have far more than this but am lacking in picture labeling skills so these are the pictures I could find quickly and easily. Sigh, project for 2024.


    Tahitian Sunset, before it got gall. Still want to replace it.


    Desiree

    Bronze Star


    Desiree again because its a great rose



    Louise Clements in the foreground; until this year she was small so Lagerfeld and Twilight Zone were constantly trying to stral her thunder. Ill get better pics now that she three up dome bigger, more more sturdy canes. She goes from orange to peach in spring and orange to pink in summer. Another great rose.



    Ok I lied, found a better pic of Louise.



    Peach Swirl, looking particularly saturated in this flush



    Jude of course, although he tends to go beige on me in summer with my full sun location

    Prairie Sunrise is rose that needs to be in more gardens. Everyone should add it to their High Country order!

  • 2 years ago

    I agree agree, it is a wonderful rose

  • 2 years ago

    Kristine how big is your Prairie Sunrise? I think we all ordered it at the same time. Mine has bloomed non stop but I don’t think it’s more than 18” tall. It may only be 15”. It may be one of those roses that just blooms and then one year is 4’ tall but mine had a setback when I went on vacation for 3 months and it needed more TLC.

    Why don’t I have Peach Perfection or Summer Samba?!??! So good!

  • 2 years ago

    Ryan, I got Prarie Sunrise >> 20 years ago from RU, and it grew well and was a fave for almost 20 years, until I lost it. I'd say it was ~ 3 ft in a 15 gallon pot all that time, with good pruning.

  • 2 years ago

    Oshun ( Barden) first few blooms on my plant. So far it's healthy, vigorous, beautiful, and very fragrant.


    Have to look up Peach Perfection.

  • 2 years ago

    Erasmus, that picture makes me want to fly across the country to see your Oshun in person!

  • 2 years ago

    Beth, your roses make me swoon! Elmhurst is my kind of rose.

    Ryan, my prairie Sunrise came out of its pot last fall and is probably less than 2 ft. Do you love yours ?

  • 2 years ago

    oh wow what a beautiful collection of peach and apricot roses! These are tremendous!

  • 2 years ago

    What a great thread!

  • 2 years ago

    Brazos Belle. Is the above Rose.

  • 2 years ago

    Can't wait to see what Oshun does this spring. I planted a second plant of it in more sun, then my trees fell down/ were removed and my original Oshun is getting more sun. But it'll be great to have two plants of it.

    I found a photo of ’Marianne’ from last May that I like better.



    I wish I still had ’Oshun’, it was beautiful here .

  • 2 years ago
    last modified: 2 years ago

    Gosh that Marianne is beautiful! Someone in the PNW or west of the Rockies might be able to send you cuttings or a plant ( of OShun) , Paul. Doesn't RVR have it? Yes, that's where my friend got his two plants so my plant originally came from RVR.

  • 2 years ago

    @erasmus I don't think RVR has had it in stock in the past 3 years. I suspect they no longer have a mother plant.

  • 2 years ago

    Here's some more love for 'Prairie Sunrise'. Mine has only been in the ground for two seasons (it took two seasons before that to grow up to planting size from a band). So far, it's stayed short (less than 3 feet) but it's a steadily blooming plant and even had blooms on it at Christmas time this year. The blooms can be quite large and elaborate, especially in cooler weather.
