Got this in late March’24 and it’s blooming beautifully with fragrant scents! Best purple rose out of total 5 different ones I’ve gotten this year from Heirloom ! ( picture of when I got it vs. now - almost 2 months)
Well, this little doll got here and took off as soon as l got it into the pot! I was not sure of its permanent home yet so right now most of my roses are in pots. Zone 7 NW exposure did this baby proud. I can't wait to see what happens when l plant it full sun and south. But the fragrance! Oh my! I want another one to plant up front so my neighbors can enjoy it as they pass by. You don't have to come close. It comes singing to you
I'm from the Mississippi Delta, birthplace of the blues. Needless to say why I bought this rose. It was really just getting established and the two puppies next door chose this one to dig up...not once....but twice. The second time, I put it in a pot hoping for the best. It has taken to the pot! Doing pretty good for the trauma it has been given. Had my first bloom a few days ago, 9/15/17. Absolutely love it! Great addition to my Delta rose garden! Also is a great compliment to Blue Boy and Blue Girl!
My little rose is about two years old now. It hasn't thrived like my other roses (stayed close to the ground and hasn't grown much). However it does bloom a lot and the scent is amazing. The color is really pretty especially against the foliage. Buds look reddish then it opens to a pinkish lavender color. It's been trouble free as well. I adore this rose and hope with some extra pampering this year I get some more growth.
