[Rose-list] Re: Rugosas slow to bloom much?!

OH, that's great to hear... Thanks Clay... I've had them just a little less
than a year.  Yes, nice fragrance but not much of a "show", YET.....
I will give them more time.

How's things doing in your garden?  The wet and cool Spring put us at least
2 weeks behind usual blooming.  My 'Charles Lawson' and 'Autumn Damask' lost
buds over it... they had PLENTY buds left to open.  Both "threating" to open
up in late May, but early last week they looked their best.  :-P
