Lovely Ken. Your accent, don’t worry your English is perfect. You have every reason to hold your head high, Your Ken Voong! That’s a lovely rose Ken and your garden is looking absolutely divine.
Thanks Dilly, your videos has also inspired me to get dutchess of Cornwall and im so thrilled with it. I haven’t use pk phite yet since I also bought after seeing your video. I have been using uncle tom’s for couple of years yet to really know if it’s beneficial. Watching you and JayJay can be costly 😜
Hi Ken, lovely roses! Looking forward to the tour. Your English is perfect ken! You speak better than many people from the UK, including myself . The music was just the right volume. Don't you be drowning out your voice at all. We all love hearing you tell us about your beautiful roses. Best wishes davena
Thank you Davena, it was nice of you to say that but I don’t believe you..🥲 I was hoping to do a garden tour this Sunday but my sister is dragging to Da garden instead. I get to see and smell the new release. Difficult to visit without walking away with something don’t you think?
@kenvoong5977 I may see you there Ken as we are thinking about visiting this weekend.My son takes me every year..last year we went twice. All times we walk away with at least 2 roses each haha. I'd prefer to see and smell the new rose myself before purchasing it. I'm usually to quick to order online but I prefer to chose my own haha. Have fun! It's a lovely day out isn't it
@kenvoong5977 you will love it I promise you. Its the most amazing place. Take money for plenty of roses and their cafes. They have 2. And then you pick your roses from the garden center. Don't go late ken as the roses move quite quickly. They always replace throughout the day but I wanted the lady gardener last year and there were only 2 left. I went late afternoon.
I love your videos. I've said that before, and I always look forward to you sharing your garden. I have three Ives Piaget. They are gorgeous and very fragrant. There is a white rose, Maria Shriver, that possibly is more fragrant than Yves Piaget or perhaps it's a tie. She likes a little shade, grows tall and very upright, with each stem a bouquet and in constant flower. She really is spectacular.
Thank you mango, I’m never tired of hearing your repeated comments. I just checked online for Maria shriver and it’s not available uk for sale. It’s a grandi flora which are tall, just as well I’ll probably struggle to smell it since I’m only 167” tall. What do you think of yves Piaget? Are you experiencing what I’m experiencing ? Unfortunately even though YP smells super strong, the fragrance just disappears when the blooms are fully opened.
@kenvoong5977 I live in California along the coast. The weather is mild. I have my roses in the ground. I tend to kill roses in pots because I'm not great at watering them. After work I just don't have the time or energy, so I'm more of a weekend gardener. Here, Yves Piaget's scent is strong and lasts even when fully open. I love to cut them and bring them inside. I have tried many times to root cuttings so I can have more, and I have failed every time. I feed organic fertilizer every couple of months, and a few times a year I'll make compost tea and feed all my roses with that. The majority of my roses are David Austins and I love all of them, but truthfully, it's Yves Piaget and Maria Shriver that are the strongest in scent, with Pope John Paul coming in third, Alexandra of Kent and Boscobel fourth. Your videos inspire me and remind me to get out there and give my roses some love. Thank you.
It's a very pretty rose. Thank you for the video. Please do not feel self conscious or apologize about your English. Your passion for your roses and sense of humor always comes through. 👍👍👍
Thank you so much Iris ! I find making a video with commentary is so important to express my passion. I’m not sure about other viewers I don’t often spend much of my time viewing ones without. So regardless how bad my English is , it’s so essential. Thank you for your support.
Hi Ken, how lovely what a gorgeous display of roses and Ives Piaget is a stunner. Your garden is so full of blooms and colour it's wonderful. You are definitely ahead of us. Enjoy the sunshine and the perfume that must fill your garden.
Hi Ken. Thanks so much for sharing this video of your lovely fragrant rose collection. I have been on the quest as well to find most fragrant rose in the world. So far these variety's have had the strongest fragrance in my garden- Margaret Merril, Sister emmanuelle, Perfume Factory, Mr. Lincoln, Jude The Obscure and Madame Isaac Pereire. I highly recommend growing some of those variety's as they also don't get taller then 5 feet. I haven't heard of Yves Piaget before, so i will buy and grow it via your recommendation. I will report back once I get my first bloom and thanks again.
Thank you Sebastian for your recommendation. I have margret merril at the back of garden in a shady area left to defend itself and have never really impressed me. My sister offered me Madame Isaac last week but I refused her offer. I will be asking for it back. Hopefully she hasn’t given it away. Jude is impossible to buy in uk since it’s discontinued. I have heard many good reviews on Mr Lincoln, unfortunately I never buy red roses. Sister Emmanuel looks perfect for my preference and is available in uk. I’ll be adding that to my garden. What place would you say sister Emmanuel’s fragrance out of the 5 ? Is she healthy? Thank you
Thank you 🙏 I fertilise my roses twice a year, once in spring and second time after the second flush. During the flowering season I liquid feed them and use tonic water 🚿 and spray the leaves another form of fertiliser.
Beautiful roses as always! In Japan they bred many outstanding cut flower roses using Yves as a parent. Unrelated, but there’s a variety of from Japan called Gabriel that produces these medium sized white flower with a grayish purple center and a wonder strong scent that I can only best describe as a mix of citrus and expensive cologne lol if you can find it in the UK don’t miss it. Quite a unique scent.
Hi iyabel, I haven’t heard of this rose before. This year I have really been impressed with Meiland and kordes roses, Now that you’ve mentioned it , I will check to see if it’s available in uk. Thank you for your recommendation. Looks like my search continues..😂
Thank you Linda , I can’t wait to get a proper tour showing all my new roses. It really gives me so much joy to able to share our passion like you have done also. 谢谢!
Hi Raj, yes YP is unbelievably fragrant when the buds are slightly and half open but today unfortunately the scent disappears significantly once the blooms are fully open. Fingers crossed this isn’t the case with the other blooms.
Hello garden gem, thank you for following. I have since taken your advice and added few kordes to my garden. I’m super thrilled with them. I should have done this long ago. Thank you for your recommendation
@@kenvoong5977 Jah! I remember our communication. I have completed my Kordes Parfuma collection this year, let’s try to analyse and describe the scent of these roses too! I just looked for Yves Piaget, it’s from Meilland. A lovely day to you!🌹
@@rosegardengems wow all the parfuma!! Have you bought their latest addition of parfuma? Porcelain, raspberry and few others. I have added glorious parfuma, bliss, spicy, delightful and earth angel to my garden this year which is yet to bloom. Spicy parfuma blooms are huge and has a lovely scent. Really looking forward to seeing yours soon. Please share them with us.
@@kenvoong5977 Yes! I will Ken but I’m not so confident like you and Jay Jay, my brain is always having lots of words in German, Filipino visayan etc.🌹
Yves Piaget is called Queen Adelaide here in Australia. I love its scalloped petal forms which is not common amongst roses but that is what makes it so unique. Child’s Love rose also has this type of scalloped edge petals. I notice that your garden of roses are quite abundant compared to last season videos. Congratulation.
Hello Carmen, I never knew it had different name. How fragrant is the rose under your nose? yes the petals are really not quite the same as what I saw online and quite unusual. The petals should be much more frilly. I love the rose for the fragrance nevertheless. This year my roses are lot more maturer than previous years with help of Many more added 🙈
I don’t have it but our rose group members have it. I plant roses for form and colours because I am not good at detecting fragrance. Oh roses, you can’t have too many 😊keep them coming I see that there is still plenty of garden space around. Cheers.
I've been in my garden really early too Ken. (Don't normally get up so early.) There's so much to do at the moment. Your garden is looking fabulous and I bet it smells amazing. Do you know why UA-cam wouldn't show your Gertrude and Olivia video? I was so excited to watch a "Ken" video and then it wouldn't play but I'm so pleased to see today's. Hope you are well and your English is really good. Better than mine and it's my first language!
So nice of you Wendy but I wouldn’t bet on my English is being anywhere near as fluent as yours. My working hours are very unsociable and don’t get home until midnight, so getting up early is out of my daily routine. For the love of roses I willing to sacrifice my beauty sleep. I’m not so sure why you’re not able to view my previous videos. You could try again perhaps. It’s lovely to hear from you. See you soon
So that's another rose being added to everyone's lists now! I do have to remind you that you haven't yet had the chance to smell Abraham Darby - so I am not going to give YP the fragrance crown just yet. And for me personally even without the fragrance the colours and shape of a good AD make it the most beautiful rose - but I would like to have an Yves Piaget!
Hi Nik, I’m still chasing after Abraham and Jude, hopefully I can persuade Lin to order from lottum later in the year as I couldn’t order 25 roses. Distant drums fragrance surprisingly has an amazing fragrance equal to all my fragrant da’s and raspberry parfuma coming soon which is known to have an exceptional fragrance too. Yves Piaget unfortunately doesn’t holds its fragrance too well losing much of its scent once the blooms are fully opened. Perhaps I may have rushed my full on conclusion far too soon.
@@kenvoong5977 Do you have to order 25 roses from Lottum then? I assumed that you could just buy a few. I am enjoying the fragrance of Mum in a Million, a new bare root which has produced a couple of huge blooms for me. I find it the smell similar to Gertrude Jekyll - but I would need to bring a rose from each bush together to check that - my memory for smells is not good. My wife says MiaM is a better, stronger fragrance. This pooling of information about our own experiences is what makes UA-cam so useful - and so dangerous for our pockets! I am still amazed by your Gertude on the fence!
Well, I don't think I've seen your Channel before Ken, it just popped up this mornng. Thank you for a lovely video of your garden and roses. Your roses all look so healthy when so many this year are suffering from Blackspot. Is there a secret to this? From a fellow rose lover. Take a look sometime. I see the previous comment is by someone I do know - Jay Jay. P.
Good morning peter, yes I’ve added quite a few to my garden this year even with little space I have. For me to avoid roses with disease would be feeding. I think it’s important to keep your roses well fed so they’re strong enough to fight off any disease. I feed mine with rose tonic and liquid continuously throughout the season. As you probably know weather and variety can play a huge part too. JayJay and myself few others have somehow created a small group, we’re always rooting for each other. For me personally it’s made my passion a lot more fun and interesting.
@@kenvoong5977 Yes Ken, as you say, there seems to be a small group of supporters. At least three of your subscribers who have commented on this video comment on mine too. It's lovely that we all share a common, and lovley, interest. Certainly some roses have good disease resistance and do respond to feeding. I shall look back at your previous videos. Something to look forward to. P.
Hi Yvonne, I bought this rose from stylerose in uk. Unfortunately there aren’t many companies selling this variety and any company who does are out of stock until next year.
Lovely Ken. Your accent, don’t worry your English is perfect. You have every reason to hold your head high, Your Ken Voong!
That’s a lovely rose Ken and your garden is looking absolutely divine.
😂 Appreciate your words, I suppose it does feel weird hearing how we sound . I could really do with some of JayJay’s confidence .
What a beautiful fragrant rose garden with beautiful different colors lovely.
Thank you Patricia 😁I tend to plant my roses very randomly where ever there is space but differentiate how much sun or shade they prefer.
Hi Ken! Very beautiful garden!!! Thank you so much gorgeous sharing 🙏🏻🌹❤️ I really enjoy watching your videos!
Thanks Dilly, your videos has also inspired me to get dutchess of Cornwall and im so thrilled with it. I haven’t use pk phite yet since I also bought after seeing your video. I have been using uncle tom’s for couple of years yet to really know if it’s beneficial. Watching you and JayJay can be costly 😜
