| This is Nicole Carol Miller - a grandilfora. I have a much better picture that shows the whole bush - but it wouldn't load - too big. But this picture shows the blooms going down to the bottom. There are a lot of blooms that don't show in this picture. Quite a lovely bush with a wonderful fragrance. The blooms last for a long, long while. It's quite a tall bush with flowers all the way up to the top and bottom. Please share your roses that bloom all the way up and down the bush. |

| You may be able to promote that effect by pruning some canes down much further than the others. Kate |

| They're lovely examples, Carol! I like my Julia Child for this effect. |

| Carol - Do you have blooms? I hope so. Your roses look great and Seil your JC is lovely. I'll show three examples. The first picture is kind of dark, but I thought my Liebeszauber in the back yard looked very unique in May, almost a one cane wonder, but it had blooms all the way up and down. Since then it has put on several more canes and has filled out a lot. |

| Here's a picture of Tiffany. |

| This is Drop Dead Red Floribunda. I love the uniform look of this bush. |

| Kate - yeah, you're right. :) Seil - your Julia Child rose looks fabulous! Such a lovely, lovely rose bush!! Love that it has sooo many blooms. Sara-Ann - These are my roses from this year. I've got tons of blooms and I won 6 firsts, 7 seconds, 1 third and 1 honorable mention at my city's rose show. First year I've entered. I'm very happy! Your roses look fabulous and have that wonderful all the way down/up flowers. I really, really like Drop Dead Red!!! Jim - Your first one (what's the name?) has so many blooms. Looks like a real workhorse. I really love the airy look of Precious Platinum. How lovely! They're all good examples of this up/down bloom style. All of your roses look great everyone!! |

| Carol that first pic with all the blooms is the dreaded Double Knockout rose. lol That certain rose bush has not been fertilized this year except for some homemade compost I spread over top its root system back in mid May... |

| Wow! What a trooper of a rose!! That's like John Davis - I don't do anything - only water twice a month, and it looks like great. It looks even better since I took this picture. Darn. the picture wouldn't load. Drat. |
