| I bought this one as a band from Heirloom. It tried to die, and I took it into the house and had it under lights and the cooler air. It gradually recovered.
I planted it in the fall, and it hasn't looked back. It has bloomed well, and is growing at a tremendous rate. Today, I decided to take a pi of a few of its blooms:

| I've had mine for a few years and this is the first year it's really pushed out the blooms and they are incredible. Mine is also done for the moment, and I can't wait for the next flush. |

| Your rose is gorgeous. This is one of my very favorite Austins but unfortunately it didn't like my hot, dry weather. It obviously likes yours just fine! Ingrid |

| Thanks so much for looking and commenting on my pic. ...Abe likes it so far, Ingrid, but he may not be so happy when full summer comes...it won't be dry, but it will be hot. He is growing so much and he has been blooming so nicely, I love it. kay |
