Pretty Lady is wonderful! She has bloomed a lot here in Nashville and lasts a while in a vase. I have her near Fiji, Julia Child, and Molineux. Really delightful.
She is only in year 3 .... just a blooming machine! I keep her well fed and she blooms from early spring through fall. and I mean covered with blooms...like 30 or 40 at a time. Big thorns but I will take it for the wonderful cut flowers I get. Bit of black spot this year but worked through it....all of mine had it. Wonderful old rose scent..
I ordered this rose in July and it is already performing beyond my expectations. The roses are even more beautiful than pictured and the bush is already producing six or more large blooms at a time. The fragrance, stem length and vase life are added benefits. I am just venturing into the growing of roses and could not have picked a better rose to add to my little garden. Of the five that I have, this is, by far, my favorite. It makes me look like I know what I'm doing!
Two years growing in a large pot, morning sun, repeat blooms, gorgeous, hardy. SW Oregon.
