This rose was planted as an own-root rose in my garden over three years ago, but has yet to grow much and has not bloomed. I'll try using more compost and more frequent organic fertilizer in 2013 to see if it simply needs better treatment. Does anyone else have experience with this rose, especially on its own roots? Thanks!
It wasn't terribly vigorous for me years ago in the old Newhall garden. When it flowered, it was pretty, but "when" was not very frequently. Even with copious horse manure, it didn't grow nor flower as well as the average HT in that garden.
Thanks, Kim. I'd really like to see it bloom before replacing it. :-) At least my expectations don't seem to be too high for this. But maybe this will be "the" year!
I would like to find this rose, it was one of my father's favorites
