nippstress - zone 5 NebraskaUpdated May 29, 2015 Well Diane, you know in Macbeth there were a lot of Royal Danes (well OK, Thanes) walking around as ghosts, so you never know. I'll be happy if it merely stands, not walks. Good to know more than 4 photos is possible, and sometime...

nippstress - zone 5 NebraskaUpdated May 29, 2015 Nick - I grow all of the ones you mention and they have survived my zone 5 yard too. Double Delight is VERY late to put out new growth, and all of the ones you mention are not cane hardy. As Michael mentioned, these roses die down...

bonny46(6)Updated May 29, 2015 To my nose, Fourth of July has just a faint fragrance, but other people have said it is medium. In no way is it strong. However, everyone comments on the beautiful colors.

seil zone 6b MIUpdated May 29, 2015 Hi Jacquie, I don't grow it myself but have several friends that do. It can be tip hardy in mild winters but in colder ones, like the past two, it dies down almost too the ground. They all have it on a trellis of some sort thoug...

seil zone 6b MIUpdated May 29, 2015 There could be a lot of reasons why it's not growing but I'm sure it took a hard hit from winter. I would dig it out, getting as big a root ball as possible, and replant it at a lower depth. It might set it back again temporaril...

nummykitchen(Z5B)Updated May 28, 2015 I love my Montezuma! It has been going strong for a few years surviving our brutal winters and constantly giving lots of beautifully shaped coral orange blooms. One that I can count on for that perfect HT rose form that I love.

Please name this rose for my friend!!!

cadiarose(zone 7a, NJ)Updated May 28, 2015 I would guess it's Julia Child. She has shiny leaves like your first photo, loads of blooms like your 2nd photo. A great floribunda to have.

seil zone 6b MIUpdated May 28, 2015 Many roses have red new growth that turns green as it matures. That alone is not a sign of RRD.

People are so nice here.

michaelg(7a NC Mts)Updated May 28, 2015 Fish as a foliar spray can burn rose leaves, especially in hot weather. Otherwise, no problem with the simultaneous application, since Rose Tone has a low percentage of fast nitrogen--just some urea in the chicken manure. About my...
