'Electron ®' rose Reviews & Comments
-
-
I am gardening in Central Texas. This rose is a great garden plant: Superior resistance to black spot, lots of fragrance and eye-catching color. Once the temps peak- however, it quits. Any flowers you do get are not worth having. It would probably do very will with only morning sun and shade in the P.M. I removed Electron this year because of the problems listed above, and because after two years of trying I cannot get it to set seed - nor can I use its pollen on other varieties. If you are not into hybridizing, and you have a spot where you can keep it out of extreme temps, this is a great rose.

Does this rose (electron) bloom in the spring and fall or will it bloom more than twice? I live in central Texas and I am looking for a good bloomer in hot pink to add to my garden. Thanks!

While I have not grown Electron, many books on roses claim that it is a repeat bloomer.

I grow Electron and it blooms from summer to fall here in north-central Texas. It is a huge hot pink flower with some fragrance.
