seil zone 6b MIUpdated July 29, 2015 If you don't break up the root ball when you make the transfer from small pot to large they shouldn't really feel any stress at all. They should only feel stressed if the roots are heavily disturbed making it more difficult for t...

view1ny NY 6-7Updated July 29, 2015 Hang in there with TG. Mine survived the last 2 horrible winters & that's saying a lot as I lost many, many others that just couldn't take the cold. When it grows a bit more, it'll hopefully put out tons of buds & blooms. ...

summersrhythm_z6aUpdated July 28, 2015 Toolbelt, All 4 of them have thorns (not a lot, but here and there) on the back of leaves. The rose band was from Angel Gardens, others were from JP. May be when they're older, the thorns would disappear, won't be spicy any more? ...

jasminerose4u, California 9bUpdated July 28, 2015 I'm back from Ireland. It was wonderful. There is a saying in Ireland, "If it's not raining, it's about too".

mirendajean (Ireland)(Donegal, Ireland)Updated July 28, 2015 There's some fragrance, however with the rain I'm struggling to determine the strength of it. The blooms last a good long while though and there hasn't been any trouble with balling in the rain.

fragrancenutter(Zone 10b)Updated July 27, 2015 When I made the above list I was thinking pink roses as I thought that was what Patty was asking for. I agree DD is still one of the best roses for fragrance around. However, when we step outside of the pink range I would sugges...

BethC in 8a Dallas, TXUpdated July 27, 2015 I'll let you know what is going on with them. In this heat I suspect I won't have anything blooming for a good four weeks. We are having 100 degree days and all my roses have gone to sleep.

Sara-Ann Z6B OKUpdated July 27, 2015 Thank you everyone. Parker, they weren't necessarily some of my favorites either, but they are growing on me. I think Love Song is one of the prettiest floribundas I've seen, not only the color, the blooms are so pretty.
