I am amazed how few raves the mini, Doris Morgan, gets. It is the best pink-blend mini I have grown and I have grown a lot of them. The plant gets very full once the weather warms in late Spring. The blooms nearly all come one to a long stem--so they are perfect for cutting. Not a lot of petals but if cut early they hold up well. In cooler weather the color deepens and really GLOWS. I highly recommend it.

I'm z7a, 5700 ft, high desert. It's not so much the heat as it is the sheer intensity of the sun that's an issue for roses here, so I'm always looking for petals that don't brown or blow immediately. Safari excels for me, holding a good form and looking lush until the moment the petals shatter completely. Of course it's also very pretty, apricot/copper quickly morphing into soft coral/salmon pink. My plant is still young but rebloom seems pretty quick, just a couple of weeks rest before new buds.

Millie Walters is a wonderful miniature rose in the high desert, 5700ft, z7a. High summer temperatures can range between 99F and 106F but the blooms keep coming, while most of my other roses are phoning it in. It's growing in a container in full sun till 3pm and then shade the rest of the day. Very prolific bloomer. The rest between flushes is very short, a week or two, and the blooms have good staying power on the bush. The color here is a true and bright coral, not pink or orange.
