New Delbard Release in Brisbane this weekend

| Hi all,
I have heard on the "rose vine" that you will be able to see an amazing "show style" display of beautiful Delbard roses and also see the new Delbard rose Maurice Utrillo which is a red background with splashes of white and golden yellow coming up from the centre! It looks amazing a real show stopper without being in your face as some fancy roses can be.
The location for this fun will be at Carseldine Garden World this Fri Sat Sun. So I thought I would let you all know so you don't miss out as you usually can't buy potted Delbards in Brisbane. I will be going on Sunday if any of you Rosies are around?? Some friends have told me the Delbard display at the Melbourne flower show is amazing!!!! Did any of you see the lovely one at Gardening Australia from Brindabellas- Toowoomba?
I love my Delbards, the perfume and colors are amazing very different to the usual colors you get from other breeders, so it's worth a pop in and like me you might get out of there with only a few ........
Cheers,
Brissy

| Thanks for letting us know, Brissy. Carseldine is a bit of a trek for me but I'll try to get there. I missed the GA segment but did see their display in Melbourne; very impressive. I only have Papi Delbard and Grand Siecle but after Melbourne have added about 6 to my 'must have' list. Rankins have some as 90cm standards. Has anyone tried these? Hazel. |

| Hi Hazel, Just to let you know the nursery has a lovely gift shop and coffee shop so you could make a day of it if you wanted. I plan to gorge on some of their cakes ....they are to die for!!! Judy, for you the world! I will take some photos for you or source some if I get there too late on Sunday and they have sold most of their stock. Cheers, Brissy |

| I know about the cakes, Brissy; treated myself on a birthday a couple of years ago. Seem to recall I bought Abraham Darby that day. Hazel |

| I went, I saw and I conquered! Talk about being in a lollyshop the Delbards are truly beautiful. I was very good and only bought one for my friends birthday .........maybe because I already most of them : ) Did any one else go, I saw so many people going out of there with 4-7 Delbards each and apparently it was a huge hit at the Nursery. I will get some photos to post. Hi Shane - "got them in" where is this? Cheers, Brissy |

Good morning Brissy. Clifton Hardware is my work place.
Small country town between Toowoomba and Warwick. The bagged roses are a big seller every year, sold a heap on the weekend and we now have a garden centre attached to the hardware so can carry more stock. Delbards and David Austins in pots . They look great and the fragrance makes a huge difference to the shop.
Regards, Shane. |

| I didn't make it, Brissy but glad to hear you enjoyed it. We got busy extending a path. This may mean more room for roses; not sure yet. Hazel. |
