| I am ordering a Cardinal Richelieu from Roses Unlimited as part of there summer sale. They require a minimum order of two roses. After looking over their list I am debating between Francis Dubreuil or Mons Tiller Rose. Any suggestion one way or the other? |

| How much space do you have? There's a big difference in size! |

| They would be going in two different places. I was just wondering which rose people like more. |

| I've grown MT in coastal NC and two locations in VA: he is about 6x6 here with very little winter kill and zero blackspot. Repeat is about 30 days. He's bulletproof. Haven't grown FD because of the BS reports. |
|
| Here they are both very good repeaters. Some mildew on MT when young. The main difference is size of the plant. Also place FD with some afternoon shade as the dark color of the flowers can blacken and toast in hot weather. Can't comment on BS. |
