Osiria rose - slow grower?

Does anyone else have an Osiria? Mine is fairly new and probably just fortifying her roots, but I've noticed she grows slower than any of my other roses. Have you noticed the same?

The blooms are totally worth it, just wanting to compare notes. Thanks!

Had Osiria for 4 years, never a vigorous grower for me. Mine was on multiflora rootstock & was a real nice big plant when I got it. Real nice flowers but small plant never produced many so shovel pruned it.

Have two. Both are slow growers and stingy with blossoms? Pretty rose, tho.

Mine grew backwards and eventually died.

And I was lusting over this one. Good to know that it's a bit of a dud.

This looks very little like my Osiria. Mine looks more like the ones on HMF. It is a beautiful rose.

Thanks for the info--my wife wants one--maybe I'll just get one bush. I'm going to make a 400 square foot bed in the front yard next year--any suggestions on other varieties to get--I'm already familiar with Love and Rosie O'Donnell.

Oh good grief, now I'm back to lusting. Really great pic Susan!

Thanks, Brittie. Even tho a poor performer, beautiful enough to garner a primo spot in my limited sun zone 5 yard.

RE: Osiria rose - slow grower?

I have this rose in Australia and it is a real stunner.I have had no problems with it healthwise or slowgrower etc.Blooms for a very long time one of the last of my roses to finish and a nice gentle perfume and wonderfull flower.

This is my first time finding any info on this tea rose. I don't have one, but have transplanted)from indoors to out( a couple tea plants and have done well, here in Nebraska. I am wondering if this hybrid is not acclimated for these clim's. But they are being grown in upstate NY or Canada, so that's a plus I guess.

I did get one more spectacular bloom from her last week. I'm moving the bush to a sunnier spot and hoping that next year I'll see more flowers. :)

I think this was bred as more of a florist type rose and those roses are fairly notorious for not being very good garden roses. Not all of them, mind you, but a majority of them. If you really love it and are willing to baby it along go for it!

RE: Osiria rose - slow grower?

does anyone have any information on where I can purchase an osiria bush in the usa?


 o
RE: Osiria rose - slow grower?

Palatine Roses, a Canadian company which does ship to the USA, is offering Osiria for 2015. Palatine is pricey, minimum order three, but its' plants, on multiflora rootstock, are large and vigorous.


 o
RE: Osiria rose - slow grower?

would anyone be interested in selling me this plant or maybe a rooted cutting. This rose just sold out and will never return at palantine roses. Please help me, i want one so bad!


 o
RE: Osiria rose - slow grower?

Mine died after the harsh winter. Good luck with finding it!


 o
RE: Osiria rose - slow grower?

A very fragile beauty.
