'Teasing Georgia' rose Reviews & Comments
-
-
This plant has grown on me. It is one of my favourite Austins. The bloom display is exceptional during the first flush. This is a very disease free, fragrant rose for Toronto in my no spray garden. Repeat is not as satisfactory as I would like but I will let the plant settle for a few years and evaluate again. It has only been 2 years since I had this rose, yet it is already a 4X5 shrub with 50 + buds waiting to bloom. I expect long canes to appear later in the summer as had last year that would be tied up to form a low pillar. TG is extremely hardy. Stem tip dieback only in the crazy winter of 2007-08 in my z6 garden with only burlap as protection.

I agree with the first exceptional flowering. In my garden unfortunately it gets black spot.

I agree with Nastarana's comment below. I grew this rose in zone 4B with lowest temperatures to -30 C every winter. I would cut her back in the late fall to about 30 cms and wrap her with straw. She would regrow to 2 metres or more every summer and bloom extremely well. I grew her as a small climber to which she is very well adapted with flexible new canes that were easy to wrap or espalier. A very good rose with some winter care.
