There are many good roses that will cover the fences quickly where I live that will be unsuitable for someone in a colder climate. So, please tell us where you live and also whether you want thorny climbers or not-so prickly ones. If you please. -- Radika California USDA 9 / Sunset 15 |

Since you do not mentions where
you are. let me suggest the absolute perfect low maintenance rose. Useful anywhere in the US. NEW DAWN. -- Theo in Zone 5 Kansas City "Tiz" wrote in message ...

NEW DAWN.
Except it's a once bloomer in coastal California. Odd, huh? I havn't heard of that. Is it so in the north coastal area or the hotter south coastal area. For me it doesn't repeat flushes. There is a fantastic spring bloom and then it keeps flowering at about 25% of the that non stop till frost. -- Theo in Zone 5 Kansas City |

I think of New Dawn as sort of silvery, a gorgeous rose that I will grow some day. http://home.earthlink.net/~cbernstei...awnCloseup.jpg The nurseries in Sonoma Country warn people that New Dawn doesn't repeat well on the coast here, especially when the weather is mild. I don't grow it, tho I love the way it looks. I have a seedling, Penny Lane, just a tiny OR, coming along. The color is very similar, tho a warmer blush pink. Another possibility is that its flowering wood may be too easy to deadhead off. I read in Scaniello's Climbing Roses that New Dawn and its offspring should be deadheaded very carefully, just removing the spent blooms and not reducing the length of the laterals. I only have two offspring, Compassion and Penny Lane, and they are both too young to experiment with. Of course it makes no sense that this is what operates here on the coast and no where else. Maybe it's a bad clone, maybe it's just not a mild climate rose. There are those too, ya know? |
