It is a beautiful rose and I do love the colour and the cup shape is perfect. Now I really want to know what this rose is too.

Today I visited the garden center close-by and I saw its "Just Joey" rose. Here are some photos I took:

This looks exactly like the rose I have. Even the bloom never fully opened....

I have to agree with Ann. If Pickering does re-open, but only ships rooted cuttings, I can't see them being able to ship to the USA. IF the cuttings are grown out for *two or more years* before they ship, they would be of a size to survive. Otherwise, a one-year cutting that gets bare-rooted will never survive the trip.

I think you guys are right about rooted cuttings. I'd have to drive 3 hrs (one way) to pick up the roses. I'd need to call first to order the roses, then they could hire an inspector for the certificate (crossing the border) before my visit. Hope I can see the list soon.

Hi-- I get about 4-5 days on each bloom I think? It is not among the longest held blooms, but they self clean and they bloom really well, so I am pretty happy with it.

Thanks Ninkasi!

Palatine Roses has Amadeus grafted onto multiflora rootstock - that would be a good choice for you.

Paul Zimmerman has a series of youtube videos on all aspects of rose culture, including training a d pruning climbing roses. Paul's a great guy and his videos are worth a viewing or two.

And of course you can come back here whenever a question arises or to show photos of your garden.

Armadeus is an outstanding rose. I am in Louisville,KY. and I can say...this rose is wonderful. Lesley

I have all China, Tea, and Noisette roses along with one KO. All of them are just as healthy as the KO. I also have a few HTs for cut flowers for the house, and every single one of them has to be sprayed.

Rose of Sharon bushes and also Hydrangea bushes are an Oklahoma tolerant spring to frost all season bloomers for color.

That puckering can also precede powdery mildew that rarely turns into rrd thou it could.

The leaf distortion and discoloration photo also shows signs that the plant may be deficient in calcium ( the distortion) and that the soil may have a build up of salts from fertilizer (the brown leaf). Leaf samples sent to a lab to verify the lack of nutritional problems would be a good educational tool.

Love dragon flies, they're so pretty. I don't see any here in my garden, but I saw a lot of them by a lake in the Adirondack Mountains this summer.

It was a band, so I started it there. I am going to put it in the ground after this bloom cycle :)

The majority of the foliage is healthy looking. A few leaves yellowing are the norm for most of my roses.

maybe try the Organic rose forum.

Hey Buford, if the ending of your user name is where you are and your zone then we are very close. I'm in NE Arkansas, zone 7A. I'm a transplant from Western Washington, zone wet and soggy (don't know the zone number). I've never planted a rose in the fall but around here it doesn't seem like a bad idea. I'm looking for a climber right now, to grow with my clematis so I may go ahead and buy Amadeus from them. Their prices seem to be pretty reasonable.

Yes, then multifloria would work for you. I know people in California can't grow multiflora because their soil is very alkaline.

I had no idea Mel's Heritage was now grown in Baden-baden. That's news to me. I didn't know the rose had found its way to Europe at all! I have no idea if anyone sells it in Europe. I've been completely out of touch with what nurseries are doing for the past four years, since I no longer do any work with roses. Good luck in your search. I'm afraid I'm not going to be of much help.

Thank you anyway, trospero! Someday I hope to add your beautiful creation to my garden,but it seems that this won't be happening soon,alas...

I finally got a scent from Tiffany. It smells to me exactly like lemon grass!

Lemongrass? Really! :) Mine (new bare root) smells faintly so far - but it's sweet. Hopefully yours will straighten out and smell right - that is unless you love the smell of lemon grass. :)

I like the banana smell that Acapella has. Smells exactly like those banana candy marshmallowy things..

Three nice Kordes reds that haven't been mentioned are Asso di Couri/Ace of Hearts, Lavaglut, and Lilli Marlene.

Hmmm....wish I could smell it. :)
