'Baby Darling, Cl.' rose Reviews & Comments
HelpMeFind's future is in your hands - Please do not take this unique resource for granted.
Your support of HelpMeFind is urgently needed. HelpMeFind, like all websites, needs funding to survive. We have set a premium-membership yearly subscription amount as low as possible to make user-community funding viable.
We are grateful to the many members who have signed up so far, but the number of premium-membership members remains too small for us to sustain the current support and development level. If you value HelpMeFind and want to see it continue we need your support too.
Yearly membership is only $2.00 per month and adds a host of additional features, and numerous planned enhancements, to take full advantage of the power and convenience of HelpMeFind. Click here to start your premium membership..
We of course also welcome donations of any amount. Click here to make a donation. Donations of $24 or more receive a thank-you gift of a 1-year premium membership.
As far as we have come, we feel HelpMeFind is still in its infancy. With your support we have so much more to accomplish.

I looked at the photos of this and there was a photo of it growing on a arch. Is that normal for a mini climber or how big does it get?

That shocked me too when I first planted a BDC, but....it is what happens. Sorry I can't type today, but the designation "mini" has to do with the size of the bloom rather than the plant. The pix here look like what mine did.

This is Baby Darling's first year in my garden. The foliage and canes have grown, but absolutely no blooms--nada, nothing! Is this common for this climber? It's very healthy looking and I'll certainly keep it in my garden for the next season, but just wondering if anyone else has any experience with this rose and can help me understand its lack of blooms. I live in Zone 9A.

This is common for many roses, especially climbers. Roses grow their roots first, then they put energy into top growth. Your rose is gettings its feet established and will become a wonderful plant in your garden. 'Baby Darling' is one of the best garden plants I have grown. Smiles, Lyn, helpmefind.com |

Lyn, you were absolutely right. The second year in our garden, Baby Darling has produced many blooms. With its delicate, lush foliage and pink petals, it has begun to cover the garage wall beautifully, just as I had hoped. I selected this climber because it is nearly thornless so I could position it close to a door without worrying about getting puncture wounds. Baby Darling surprised me, too, with a gentle sweet fragrance so I'm quite pleased, as you said I would be. Thx! Donna
