Lady Banks rose evergreen?
Hi all,
Is this rose truly evergreen? I've never heard of an evergreen rose, but the Monrovia website seems to indicate that it is. Anyone have any of these? http://makeashorterlink.com/?L67841D44 Thanks, Elizabeth |

It gets a little thin in winter but never lost down to thorns. It has been really spectacular for the past two weeks. Think the rainy week hurt it some. We built an arbor and have one at each end. It will be fully covered by the end of the summer. This thing is only slightly behind kudzu and wysteria in growth though. http://makeashorterlink.com/?L67841D44 Thanks, Elizabeth -- Wes Dukes (wdukesNOatSPAMpoboxdotcom) |

I would agree with wes -
Not thick in evergreen like a hedge although mine does not get full full sun, which probably would thicken it up It does grow quite a bit in the spring so give it room to roam.

Some are viney like a rose, but others just take off like a fishing pole. Also remember it blooms on last years growth so prune right after it blooms and only the occassional wild cane after that.

I also have an arbor that I will be growing the Lady Banks on. How big is
your arbor? Mine is 8'h x 4'w x 4'd. Should I plant it so the roots are in shade or sun? Should I plant one on either side, do you think? Thanks. wrote in message ...

I don't think it matters much one now gets a lot more shade than the other since one is northeast of the other. The sunnier one gets about 8 hours of sun. I don't think it matters much where the roots are. I just took a roll of film of it and selected the option to get them put online so if it works I will see if I can make a few jpegs available. wrote in message ...

Thanks! Looking forward to seeing the photos. Sounds like I only need one
plant for my smaller arbor. E. wrote in message ... In article ink.net, Elizabeth wrote: I also have an arbor that I will be growing the Lady Banks on. How big is your arbor? Mine is 8'h x 4'w x 4'd.
