I planted three Blanc Double de Coubert in my shade garden last March (bare
root), which is all green and white theme. Well, they didn't die, and were
still green and somewhat thriving...However, I am told that they need a
year to get established, then look out. Let's see what happens this spring
and summer. Sure hope they turn out, as their impact would be gorgeous.
