I bought these to replace the deceased one that my great aunt gave me 20 years ago. The roses arrived in pretty good condition and are growing well. They started putting out new leaves within days of arriving and are looking great. The shipping was a bit stressful for me and for the roses since it took a bit longer than expected but the roses appear to be growing out just fine. Excited to see them bloom soon.
This rose has gotten me a lot of compliments. I've only gotten two blooms from her as I only planted her less than a month ago, but visiting neighbors, delivery persons, relatives and people passing by have stopped to comment on her. She's not blooming exactly as pictured for me. She exhibits a bright yellow back to her petals with her inside being a scarlet red. I think it's very pretty, although from the compliments I'm getting, others seem to find her even more appealing. She's certainly unique. I just don't believe I have conventional tastes in roses. I seem to like ones others don't care much for while they rave over ones I don't consider as spectacular. But, I'm glad I got Ketchup and Mustard. It's certainly lovely and a showstopper.
I planted these in pots. Here in Texas it’s been extremely hot. I was worried they wouldn’t make it. I water mine morning and evening. And they are doing great. Thank you so much!
After 8 days in transit it started filling out and blooming within days. It looks just like its photo - bright and beautiful. You really have a wonderful selection that can't be found locally.
