I have the will power of a gnat.

I don't know..... I've dealt with some pretty determined gnats!

Tamora, Bob's fault because he says it's great in a pot and we all know
pots don't count

Definitely, pots don't count. ( I have about 100)...... heh heh

Granada, Shiva's fault because I think I don't like HT's and then I saw
the buds and had to admit publically that they were, well, beautiful

The great thing about Granada is that is has strong fragrance as well,
the knock on it is that is doesn't repeat all that well.

Aloha because I've seen it for years and it would do so well on my wall
of shame

Some folks say that 'Aloha' is not a good repeater as well....
sorry.....

Jean Kenneally because I hate minis and this is their last chance

Jean Kenneally.... the highest rated rose of all roses by the ARS. Go
figure. Sorry to report that it is a mildew magnet.

It is a constant bloomer with little pink exhibition shaped hybrid tea
like blooms. And it is the tallest miniature I know of that is not a
climber. ( 6 feet tall). Grows straight up ....... very upright.
Needs deadheading for good rebloom.

All in all there are much better minis in my opinion. You should not
give up on minis!!! I'm begging you. What you really need is a visit
to Sequoia Nursery. Then you will be converted. I swear it. (Don't
judge a mini until it has been able to show you its true colors in its
third year.)

I think You would really like 'Climbing Rainbow's End'. It gets big
and shubby with long arching canes filled with hundreds and hundreds
of blooms that change color with sun exposure. From yellow to orange
to red to pink to white. Everyone should grow this one. I have 3.

And you don't have Jeannie La Joie? If you like polyanthas and hybrid
musks, you'll love this one
