| I have Memorial Day. It's pretty but not the best rose in my garden. Tends to black spot and if it's very humid it can ball. It likes to grow very tall and narrow so it's good for a tight space. I like the ruffled petals a lot. |

| Fascinating. This shows--once again--how much where you are determines how your roses grow. I have Memorial Day as well, and it IS one of the best roses in my garden. A reliable performer, fabulous fragrance, and completely disease free over 5 years and counting--go figure. And it's not tall and narrow but medium and vase-shaped. Seil and I might as well be growing two different roses entirely. I'm out here in hot and dry California, but if you're in Zone 6, your experience may be more like Seil's. Kay |

| If Belinda's Dream does well in your area, you will not regret it. I have about 10 of them. They smell wonderful and are great in bouquets. The bush is very attractive also even when not in bloom. |

| We can't give good advice without knowing approximately where you live. Belinda's Dream is not very good in Appalachian zone 6. It would be better in a zone 6 with hotter, drier summers. |

MD is one of my favorites; big fragrant blossoms. Love it so much bought another one last year. Original is about 6 years old. Clean for me!!
BD died first winter. |
