I love red roses with white reverses and I have quite a collection of them. I was just looking at the sale on J&P's website and they have one called Merlot, part of their wine series from last year. Does anyone grow it? How has it preformed for you?

Mine is a very prolific rose. Lots of nice big blooms! Also lots of nice big thorns.

Thanks, Wayne. I've noticed that a lot of J&Ps roses have nasty thorns!

I bought mine when it was called FAIREST ONE under the Disney Princess Collection. It's a pretty rose. Grows kind of low and wide for me. It's still in a big pot right now til I figure out where to plant it!

I'm glad I read this link. I just ordered it a couple of days ago during their sale. I think I paid around 7 or 8 dollars for it. I love the white/red reverse roses.

Seil, maybe this one will be better than our thorney monster, Snowfire!

Lol, Tammy, that's exactly what I was thinking! I detest my Snowfire but unfortunately it was the first rose Al picked out and he LOVES it! Of course he's not the one that has to take care of the picky thing!
