I ordered June 9 and received June 20, 2024. I planted my roses the day after receiving. It has been one month and they are growing well. I went out and this guy was already producing a baby rose. First picture is the day they were planted second picture is today July 22,2024 in a heat wave in Utah.

Such an amazing addition to our front yard fence, adding continual sprays of sweet white blooms. Very vigorous and resistant to disease compared to some of my other roses.

Wedding Garland arrived two years ago with a bud and has steadily climbed and produced small, 2-3" blooms since then. Some are deliciously fragrant while most are lightly scented. She just had a beautiful flush of flowers a couple of days ago, so I was reminded to write a review. I love this rose for its peach buds and creamy white flowers. It's a winner!

This rose arrived in the middle of a scorching heat wave, so its planting was delayed a bit. Even so, it produced its first bloom after a month. Based on the comments here, I decided to try an experiment to see if it was a good cut flower, and if the blooms were small. My first bloom was also very small, but that is common for many one gallon roses. The pictures here show a large rose, with bloom size far exceeding the foliage size. I think next year, the size will be much larger.

There was nothing on this site to indicate how many petals the blooms carry. Generally, harvest time is dictated by petal count and the pictures here suggest the petal count is significant. Even so, I harvested the first bloom very early in the bloom's life, to test my hypothesis. The sepals were cracked, but not reflexed. The first row of petals was beginning to crack when I cut it. The fragrance was mild, but present. The bloom was properly conditioned before going into the vase. The bloom matured slowly in the vase, and the stamens were not visible until day five. That meets my criteria for lasting cut flowers. With a high petal count (which she surely has), an early harvest proved to be the path to success. I cut the bloom at a maturity level normally only applicable to single blooms (Sally Holmes, Playboy, Dainty Bess) and it worked beautifully. My second bloom has formed, and I will repeat the experiment. So far, I am quite pleased.

Continuing amazement at hardy nature of Heirloom roses. First year, under 6 months in ground with beautiful cluster of buds that have opened into a cascade of blooms, at least 8 fully open. Stunning, invited neighbors over to look. Zone 9a, Central Florida, heat, rain and hurricane.
