Rainbow Sorbet is very susceptible to blackspot. It came with it and I've been fighting BS on it since I planted it in 2005.

This is really an outstanding cultivar. Blossoms look delicate but they are surprisingly tough even to heat and wind.

This year (2009) in New Mexico Golden Wings has amazing hips. I don't have one but my neighbor does, and I have harvested them to feed to my goats for treats. They will do anything for them. I'm going to plant two of them in the spring for a food crop.

Sounds like a win win situation Jan. Lucky goats you have that you are looking out for them.

It's making me interested in my 100 or so roses again too.

I gave a presentation to the local Tortoise & Turtle society about growing roses as a food source awhile back. Turns out Tortoises love to eat things that are colorful.
Roses are good source of fresh and nutritious food for reptiles that most people have access to. That's most of the year in my climate.

This is an excellent cultivar. It is an outstanding performer in the City of Reno rose garden. It has never suckered but has an enormous crown.
On an aside, my goat got out an ate my popcorn rose bush... goats love all portions of a rose bush, especially mini and micro flora bushes where the thorns aren't as nasty.

I'm in the photo tab and see no way to load rose photos. Please advise.

First visit the plant page you have photo for and click the "Photos" tab. There, you'll find and UPLOAD PHOTO button. Does that answer your question ?

Given we see you have uploaded some photos we will assume you have resolved this issue. Thanks for you photo contributions AND for supporting HMF.

2010 ARS Handbook for roses has Candy Stripe rated at 6.4. I find it unstable in color, but a reasonable performer in the City of Reno Rose Garden. It's planted next to Pink Peace and sometimes it's difficult to tell the two apart.
