So, now as I drive past cemeteries, I’m craning my neck to see if there are any roses in bloom. If I see someone else out there with a pair of scissors, we’ll both know to salute each other “To P.AllenSmith😁 RoseHunting.
I’m in the process of converting the west side of my front yard into a rose garden. It’s hard to find the right roses as I’m in zone 4 AND I’m not too fond of red roses, but there are some beautiful specimens out there. New Dawn is gorgeous and there are so many pale pink David Austin roses for zone four. I just wish iceberg roses worked in my zone.
I have a 7 year old Kazanlik that has had virtually no blooms since being planted. There were 3 flowers last year but zilch all before and so far this year as well. The foliage is luxuriant and disease free. Neighboring 2 bushes are also Damascus variants and give off adequate blooms. I use Miracle-Grow For Roses on all of them, planted all at the same time and with same soil prep but this one is the only problem. Any ideas, anyone ?
They’re really not, they live perfectly happily in the wild with no help from us! And even cultivated varieties survive for decades in abandoned plots. I wonder if you live somewhere where the climate doesn’t suit them?

If I had space, I'd grow every old garden rose I could get my hands on. I absolutely love them.

What time of year should you take cuttings to root?
I miss real Jackson and Perkins roses.
No matter what you say, roses are difficult to grow and keep alive!!
