It’s been almost one year and this rose shot up and has done a beautiful job! It arrived about 1 foot tall and has now exceeded 7 feet. The blooms continue even into a zone 9 winter with nighttime temperatures dropping to the mid 30s. So thankful I picked this one up! It’s not the cheapest rose plant, but it has done a remarkable job!! Well worth it!
Just planted her in my raised bed and did not expect any blooms for this season and she gave me a sneak peek of what’s to come for the Spring! It’s October in my zone 9a and already she’s putting on new growth and doing well!
I purchased one Wollerton Olde Hall mid-summer and fretted the past few months because we’ve been in a severe drought in central Ohio for the entire summer. Of course, this was the summer I decided to invest in a good number of Heirloom roses…
This little beauty established quickly and started throwing leaves like crazy. Did not expect much height the first, which is why I delayed putting up a trellis. Anyway, multiple canes are 4 feet tall and this is my first rose! I’m thrilled!
Would like to note that I ordered all of the planting supplies for my roses from heirloom; it was the smartest thing I’ve ever ever done. Despite the drought/high temps/insufferable heat index for most of the summer, the roses have done great.
I planted this in January (7 months ago) and it has twice been mowed to the ground by a family of deer. I was so worried about this but it’s bounced back really well and is starting to produce large blooms. Also worth noting that black spot came through and took out 75% of my peonies, but these roses weren’t affected in the least.
