| The two roses mentioned in the title are a couple of Carruth roses I am wondering about. Pat from Alabama mentioned both of these on an earlier thread I started about Carruth roses, but I hadn't paid much attention to either until I started looking at pictures on HMF, they are both gorgeous. I would love to know more about them. |

| I only have Falling in Love and I'm not all that thrilled with it. It's not very vigorous, stingy blooming and spots a lot. On top of all that it is the thorniest rose on earth! |

| Falling in Love is also VERY winter tender. I lost it in it's first winter. Chris Everet is supposed to be a good rose for the mid-west. |

| Don't have either, but I sure like drooling over everyone else's pictures! |

| I may start collecting roses based on their names. I almost bought Julia Child just because, and I already have JFK. I didn't know Chris ( Evert btw) had a rose named after her. Is there a Martina Navratilova rose? No? There should be! |

| "Thorniest rose on earth". Good to know, because sometimes you want the thorniest rose on earth. For instance, where the public can reach over the fence and damage the plant, when they can't wrench a bloom off. Like Marilyn Monroe, the rose not the person. |

| Falling in Love has a beautiful bloom. It seems to recycle slow and not a lot of blooms. I remember unpacking my bareroot from Edmunds' and saying that I wouldn't have ordered it if I had known it was so thorny! |
