Default Deadheading Mutabilis!

I've been doing this regularly, which entails essentially getting

Cass, do you deadhead this rose? You had mentioned that it pretty much
had just one bloom at a time--and mine did last year in its first
year. But this year it is staying full, and very pretty.


Yes, once I figured out that it sets a lot of hips if you don't. I've
been awarded one nice long 6 foot basal this year. The thing has taken
a long time to grow. I have an OR in a pot as insurance, and it is
doing a lot better, for some odd reason. Blooms constantly, neat smoky
colors.
