Lady Hillingdon- In a 45cm pot, large plant, label says it is a climber...but looks bushy to me ;)
Evelyn- 45cm pot, stunning albeit nodding blooms of a light apricot cream with hints of pink. This and LH look almost pot bound, nice big plants.
Sun King- Love the colour, not a lot of scent there.
Marilyn Monroe- Swane's new rose on the market. Very impressed with colour, creamy apricot...or is that bottle blonde?!? Lovely form I would expect to see used by exhibitors. Nice healthy green leaves. I'd be surprised if this doesn't become one of the most popular roses. Nice scent too.
Ordering-
Kooiana(?) Daybreak- Lovely perfect form much like MM but a delicate shade of pink. Big strong bush, a sport found in WA from Sylvia.
Foundation- Impressed with the flowering power of this orange beauty. Small blooms that look good as the flower ages.
Mme Hardy- Need I say more ;)
Gosnell's Hospital Rose...Not it's official name, just a rose that describes where it was found. Very lovely deeply cupped,large, red-black, excellent scent. Big strong bush. |
