Stunning

Long John Silver is a gorgeous beast. It took off in the second year with loads of gorgeous fat blooms. It is a bit wild, so it needs a lot of attention to keep it under control. It climbed up nearly 10ft and the lower branches are almost 2 inches thick already. It has intense, thick thorns and the fragrance is lovely. This rose is a show stopper.

I’ll be applying Niff Barnes branch weaving technique to best manage it.

Very fast growing

I plant this rose in 5 month ago. Now it have 3.5m height. I plant it in shade area, still no blooms, but I expect for it. I plant it for leaves. It grow on bad soil in zone 10b. No problem with any black spots or etc.

Arrived in Great condition

My Long John arrived in great condition, and I had high hopes for it however, it didn't make it through the Montana winter. I will be trying again as I learn from my mistakes
