One of my favorites EVEN THOUGH I can't smell noisettes.
That's really saying something since I usually SP roses for lack of fragrance.
These were taken last week- she's actually blooming harder now. Almost 100% white with no leaves showing. Amazing.
With Maggie - neither have ever been pruned - Maggie needs it.

| What an incredible rose, and Maggie is equally beautiful; they're great together. MW is just plain incredible in regard to size and bloom. The blush buds and faint pink blush of the rose are really attractive. I love your monster roses! The size really makes them so dramatic. Ingrid |

| MW is beautiful. Thanks for posting those pics. Another question, if you don't mind. I noticed you grow Magenta and wondered how it does no spray for you and how you like it? |

| My Magenta was still a little baby this spring and I killed it by fertilizing... That'll teach me not to drink beer while gardening! |

| lol, Carrie. I ordered one from Rogue Valley because of the color; I will try remember to stick to coffee when carrying around fertilizer. Thanks for the laugh. |

| Mary Washington is my token noisette. I do smell it, but the fragrance is not strong. I thought I would try this rose because it was supposed to be more cold-hardy and didn't turn into a monster climber. Once it got going, it hasn't been a disappointment. |

| Hmm... never been pruned. I think I'll stop pruning. They're both beautiful! |

| Oh my what luxury! Thats how I think of a display like this marvelous! |
