Wonder if they're using tissue-culture to get them, or merely taking cuttings. They're a bit pricey in my book, but I do plan to buy... As for Disneyland, it strikes me as so ugly and vulgar in color that I simply HAVE to have one. I'm planning a little "Garden of Horrors" section of my rose garden -- the old standby Tropicana, with its insincere orange-sherbet color (at least down here in North Florida) will be the centerpiece. Peace, in my book, belongs there, and I'm nursing my $4 bush of that to full health. I'm seriously considering buying a Barbra Streisand for this as well. Yes, I'm dead serious. Your tastes may vary, and of course I may find that faced with the actual blossoms of a real live Disneyland, it's not that bad: I may have to keep it in a pot until it blooms and shows its true colors. Mark., zone 8b That, of course, is probably why I love it...because everyone else would find it vulgar! Actually, though, here in Seattle I expect the colors to be a bit more muted. But then again, I love Orange and peach colored roses anyway. All of my favorites are nice and vulgar and orange. :Þ JimS. Seattle |
