My best Austins for the PNW

10 years ago

On Vancouver Island, Austins tend to get in a snit if it rains and their very double flowers end up with their faces in the mud. Having grown many of the newer ones, I like these these ones best for rain.
I know he bends over, but I really like Christopher Marlowe

I have been away from the forum for a long time and just stopped in tonight to look at some roses and oh my gosh, you filled the bill for me. Thank you, I love all your pictures but this one in particular makes me want this rose. I grow lots of Austins and adore them all but have not seen this one. He is now on the top of my want list. Thanks, I think. LOL
