A very early Francis Meilland review.

My newer rose bed was built and roses planted on 5/16/13. FM is one of the new plants. I have had only 5 or 6 blooms on this plant. ( All of the others have given me many, many blooms.) The FM buds take a long time to open, but once they do, the blossom loses it's petals in only a little over a day.

I realize that these plants are just getting established, but the blossoms of St. Patrick, Brandy, Peace and PJP are all already holding for a number of days. St. Patrick and Brandy (seed parent of St. Patrick) are holding for about a week.

Am I being impatient?
