Maryl (Okla. Zone 7a)Updated February 24, 2014 Interesting post. I grew Tuscan Sun when it was first introduced. I loved how the colors were pretty from the bud stage to the fully open stage even if they changed along the way. Mine was own root (which is how it was offered whe...

ms. violet greyUpdated February 24, 2014 Trade Gris reminds me of my Vol de Nuit (Night Flight). I am the most interested in Lila Vidri. It seems like it was a short lived rose in commerce. Supply & demand?

ratdogheads(5b NH)Updated February 22, 2014 I really like the idea of framing the whole window, and I think I'll do that with whatever I plant as a replacement. Then I'll tuck some minis along the front.

nikthegreek(9b/10a E of Athens, Greece)Updated February 21, 2014 Daisy, I suspect this will be a particularly bad year for us in terms of fungal diseases since I expect spring to be loooooong and humid. Spring has started in January already.. Nik
