Beautiful healthy rose

I ordered this rose in mid-June and planted it in a large raised bed in my backyard. I followed the planting instructions diligently, and have been training the canes horizontally. Within 6 weeks she's rewarded me with beautiful new foliage and my first bloom! I have a couple more buds coming in too. She's not very tall yet but I have high hopes for her to take off next year. She has a lovely light scent too. I'm excited to see how she matures!

Pristine prince

My James Galway arrived March 4th. I watched the Heirloom instruction videos and followed everything to a T... soaking, really big hole, expensive amendments, etc. I was GREATLY rewarded! Today is May 30th, and I have 4 blooms and even more buds. Not much if any scent (though he is so young, so it may come with time). Leaves are dark green, somewhat matte, and absolutely pristine -- no spots or holes or scorch marks. Like, museum quality foliage! I never spray anything, and never will, but do lots of companion planting to encourage ladybugs & parasitic wasps. The blooms are medium pink, not a delicate or soft color, but not glowing pink or hot pink. A lovely, goes-with-anything, cool pink. The full bloom resembles my Gertrude Jekyll in shape, which is great, but why does no one talk about the buds?? The buds, or young blooms when they are JUST opening, has such an exquisite, ruffled shape to the edges of the petals. Just gorgeous! P.S., don't judge me please, I snapped the photos before tying the canes to the obelisk! Promise, he is nice and neat now :)
