That's nice to know BraveRichard. I am planning only keep the hardy bands in the basement for 1 winter -6 months (Nov-Apr), then plant them in the garden next spring. The tender roses (shouldn't be growing in my zone) are going to be in the basement every winter. There is one rose I am not sure if I can plant it in the garden now, it's Oct already. It's a La France rose I just got it from ARE last week. It's bigger than 1 gal size, but it's not a hardy rose, there are not many weeks left for it to grow roots in the garden before the winter, so I am going to bring it in with the bands. My 2 car garage is full in the winter, there is no room for more pots. I have 8 bikes (motorcycle/scooters) and 1 summer car in the garage, the 25 potted rose trees will be between the bikes and the car in 2 tiers (they will be on top of each other) plus other 2 potted roses. I wish I have a greenhouse......,or a 3 car garage. :-)

Really like Julie's basement garden, have to find all the stuff this weekend. Winter is coming, today's high is 57.

in my humble opinion , it seems the cane is expanding with age, in the first pic , the rest of the pics show damage and scars, i would wait and see if the buds on the canes grow out then i would let them be, and as they age the scars will improve visually.

The canes are fine. Do a couple of rounds of dormant spray in late winter to kill off some of the spores. You can never get them all.

Thanks everyone! It's definitely dead even the roots looked dead, and it wasn't that hard to yank up either (which was good for me anyway lol). I have brought a new one and put it in the same spot, so hopefully that one does well. Thanks Kate yeah I made sure there was more space between the wall and the rose, hopefully it grows nice.

Sadly this ones a goner,rip it out and air the soil by tilling it over , do please improve the soil before replanting to avoid hurting the new rose.

Almost everything I have bought from them ends up being stunted. Very weird. Maybe my garden doesn't like Dr Huey.

Zone 5B is a little too cold for many varieties Hybrid Teas. You may also have issues with a short growing season--they may not have enough time to recover fully from the winter dieback. A short season may be even shorter if the growing location does not get full sun all season. A soil test may provide some clues.

I love mine, they perform well in the Chicago area, too.

I like mine. I do sometimes have problems with the blooms not opening fully, but that may be because of thrips, which it seems to attract. Great fragrance.

A rosarian is typically a gardener who spends more time on their roses than all the other plants.

My definition is a little looser. If you know the names of the varieties and what subgroups they belong to that you grow, you're probably a Rosarian.

Mossy you won't regret it. I tried to get a good bush shot bc the bushes have been gorgeous all summer. My other roses in back yard are a softer palette which is why I'm moving it or else I would leave it there. Judy

I went in and ordered Folklore - to be delivered next May:) I was surprised at the number of roses that were on sale! Anything I've ordered from Heirloom has done well, but I'm so glad they are offering gallons now!

I'd be wondering about puckering and green streaks at the red stage also. I might start by looking for bugs such as aphids.

I have them in my yard here in Camp Verde Arizona. They will eat the feeder roots on anything. If you get enough of them they will kill a rose or any other type of plant. They will even eat bulbs. I use 7 granules and then water it in. Mine are from June bugs.

Well, like I said, I'm battling them myself right now so I spotted it right away! They aren't rose slugs. They're too long, at least and inch or so. I don't know what they might be.

It seems to bloom more than Moonstone. I have a few blooms on it now, but it's been raining for a few days, so I'm not sure what shape they are in. I did cut one that just opened last night and I have it in the fridge for the show, which is on Saturday. I hope it lasts!

I will see if I can get a picture and post it.

I've had all three, but only pjpII is still in my garden (I have four). It is a big heat lover, keeps blooming in the summer without the blooms shrinking. Scent is strong at all times for me, but Dallas is much drier than here (comparatively), so I don't know if that makes a difference.

I think so did reach Texas and I know they plan to put more to Texas this next Spring. I never know what stores they go to but I will see if we can get an idea where they are delivering next spring.

For me Lemon Fizz is a simple not very strong sweet smelling rose. I am always jealous of the people who have a better sense of smell than I have. Sometimes I have people just walk by the display garden and they smell so much more than I do. I think it might be my allergies that affect my sense of smell, but I also think that different scents are more powerful for different people.

nippstress - zone 5 Nebraska

BlueKYstream, you should have no trouble overwintering Poseidon in your zone, though South Africa and Plum Perfect have needed some protected areas to do well for me in zone 5. Patty, it's good to hear that the Sun Belt roses have a chance in our zones, since there are half a dozen new ones to me in Chamblee's lists that I'd like to try. Since Plum Perfect didn't even pretend to survive last winter, I'm taking those varieties much more cautiously than most of the other Kordes. Chris, I appreciate the notice that these are bred more for warmer climates so that I can take appropriate measures to give them warmer spots in the yard.
