Got my golden celebration less than a month ago. Planted them about a week after I got them during the heat wave this summer. I live in Zone 10A, but about 1.5 miles from the beach - so never gets over 86 here. Planted her in direct light, gave her the founders fish fertalizer and sprayed her with some neem oil... LESS THAN A MONTH... and I already have a bloom. Truly cannot believe it. One of them is alive and thriving and no blooms yet but this one blew me away since it's still such a baby!! My other ones including South Africa and Distant drums already have baby blooms too. 10/10! :)
Got a single small but beautiful rose exactly 3 weeks after planting. I don't see any other buds yet, but the rose bush is healthy and growing quickly. Looking forward to many more roses in the future. Gratifying to see results so soon.
My Golden Celebration arrived healthy and well-packed. I waited 2 weeks to plant her but she's done really well in her spot. I planted her a month ago and just got my first bloom today! It was a lovely surprise this morning. Can't wait for her to keep growing!
I bought this rose last year and the first flowers this summer were simply wonderful. The flowers are large, pleasant yellow in color with a strong aroma
