One of my all time favourites. I could look at her all day.
Rosamond
This so far... is my favorite too. I'm afraid my big Mama plant has died back this winter.
I like this one a lot too. Can't wait to see any brug bloom here. I won't be picky for the first blooms, but after that just watch and see who gets the most attention.......LOL!!
Mine also! Love your pic Miss Lizzie! And this year I will have several mature trees! Well, more mature! LOL. I have one that is about 14 feet high!!! It stayed out all winter in the ground and did not die back at all! It must be in the warmest place in the garden!
Oh wow, that will be a sight when it blooms again. Can't wait to see some pictures of it. Take one that shows the height too. It has to be amazing to look at.
I will try. Last year I tried and tried to get a good shot but just could not get a good dangle. I am about to trim it back to get it much fuller. I have about 8 big limbs on it.
Gosh if it is in the right spot, before long you will be able to view it from the skylights in the house.
Beautiful, Liz. I just lost my one and only from poppysue.
Beautiful photos ... I can hardly wait to see blooms on mine this year.
Hang in there Gloria, there will be some around before long. If mine remains healthy and sends up some basal shoots, I'll get one rooted for you.
Bless you!
Liz, it is so beautiful. I saw mine bloom for the first time several weeks ago and I was thrilled. I also saw Butterfly bloom for the first time about 6 weeks ago. I am sure going to have fun this summer.
I don't like this one............I LOVE IT!!!! LOL I use this one a lot in breeding. seed pods mature in about two months instead of 7-9 months like others.
I put RK pollen on mine, the babies are growing fast!
LOL, this is a love thread!
I still owe you seeds Gloria, I will stick in a few cuttings if you will root them. OK? And bug me to send them.
I have one of your Rosamond x RK babies growing, Susie, finally. Had trouble with the second batch of seeds molding, but one is up and looking good!
Mary, I had trouble with them wanting to mold too. I probably should have dipped them in bleach water first.
I think I should have, too. I think I used physan on these, and I recently used physan on some other seeds and had mold problems on all of those, too, so apparently whatever causes the white furry mold isn't stopped by Physan. I am gonna go back to bleach.
I just checked some other seedlings I'm sowing the "Monika way"(I love that method cause I can see them germinate) and Eternity X Rosamond is molding, but none of the others. I think this calls for experiments, lol.
LOL Susie! Mary you have encouraged her! Last year Susie had a bunch of us doing all sorts of experiments. She was a tough boss lady, a slave driver!
Rosamond is a great brug! Her sister Cinderella has a more round looking leaf, which is deeply serrated.
Ok......my good friend Kell, I'm bugging, begging you to send those seeds and cuttings. Thank you much.
You can't beat this one, I can tell you from experience that it takes alot of abuse and keeps going. My Rosamond cuttings froze this year, and you sure can't tell it now! A few even have blooms on them!
Glora, I think I have an extra rosamond cutting rooted, let me check and if so, I can send you one.
Kell, I'm bugging and begging also.
I'm ill here. My Rosamond and Butterfly didn't make it through the Winter. Boo hoo, boo hoo.
Thank you also Mary, I will email you.
Sylvia, I think I have one I can send you too, or will before too long.
Thanks Mary. This sure makes it easy on me and they will have their plants in time to see bloom this year. That is much better than what I could offer.
