Re: Rose labeling and Playboy

Andrea: Even to one who is less than thrilled with orange colors in my
garden, that is a beautiful rose...very striking in it's coloration.
What is it's scent like? That is one of the reasons I like DD so
much...a strong, lovely rose scent is probably the most important
quality I look for in roses after disease resistance. Also, what plants
would look well with such a strong orange color? I will definitely keep
this one in mind for when I am back to buying plants instead of just
moving around what I've already got. :-)

Kitty-I agree with Melody on the labeling. Also, if you had a marker
(sign)<br>large enough you could do a little explanation that there are
2 Peace roses,<br>one tea, one climber, just for info
purposes.<br><br>Melody-have you ever seen a Playboy rose? Absolutely,
truly, amazingly,<br>stunning. To me it makes Double Delight look dull.
I don't actually have<br>one, a friend does but we are trying to get
some cuttings going. My other<br>favorite is Climbing Joseph's

climbers.<br>> Just out of curiosity, do you classify all the roses? So
that the<br>> regular Peace rose would read Rosa 'Peace' (hybrid tea)?
Wow--that is a<br>> tremendous amount of work. BTW, this is one of my
