[Rose-list] Re: Finally---Blooming like mad!

Hi Phillip,

I love hearing about your roses, and would love to hear more. Penelope as a
center peice, yummy.  How is this rose for disease resistance?

Do you prune 'Rambling Rector' hard to two feet every year?  Would you do so
with all your ramblers? or just this guy?  How old is it?

Isn't that fish stuff great... My sister's Blaze took several years to
establish before getting wonderful with blooms.

My Climbing Souvenier de la Malmaison is still one year young. She just
bloomed two beautiful blooms and now has 7 more buds on the one cane that I
tied horizonally on a trellis "wall", and plenty of new growth on that same
cane .  Another cane was left vertical and only set out 2 spurts of new
growth... I'm going to set it horizonally now too. Perhaps this would work
on your Dortmund also!

Sincerely,
~Carleen~
