'Cary Grant ™' rose Reviews & Comments

-
Hello, The information you have for Roseland Nursery in North Carolina is badly outdated. They are not longer a full service nursery, no longer at the location listed and the phone number is wrong and now belongs to a private citizen. This company now has only a stall at the Farmer's Market which had 9 plants when I went there today.
I have been searching for a Cary Grant and a Red Intuition rose for a while now and the listing here said they carried both as well as over 511 varieties. Imagine my surprise to find 9 plants in all when I finally tracked them down.
The information needs to be updated so no one else drives 20 minutes to find nothing of value. Thank you.

Thank you for taking the time to contact us about this change.
We count on listing owners to keep their listing current but that doesn't always happen. We have plans to address this shortcoming.
Thanks again.

My experience with this rose in the 90s was: great vigor, strong scent, lots of blooms, WICKED thorns, and mildew. The mildew part confused me. So few roses mildew here. In a lot of ways, this rose was a shorter version of Folklore, which I also grew. It also had mildew. Go figure, lol. I never kept either, but I did keep Touch of Class. It won out by being the superior garden plant here.

Vigorous, moderately disease resistant. Needs warm temperatures and "acidity- enhancing" fertilizer to bring out best color. Otherwise, color is "pinkish", or muted. Scent is not pleasant, it smells of old musk perfume!
