Young Golden Lady

Her first year, and first day of first bloom. Not golden yet though. Such a cute mini. She's been so bug resistant compared to the others I've had this year.

Also Butterfly is getting ready to fly....

Flowers in December!! So nice. Golden Lady gets cats bad but other than that I have not noticed mites or anything either.

What a joy having some blooms this time of year Mary.
I bragged about the GL and CDW not getting any mites or damage and then two weeks later they had to be stripped and sprayed!!
LOL
Hope your not jinxed now that you mentioned they are pest free Mary.

Oh Mary, I can't wait to see your Butterfly spread her "wings" in front of that pink rose! Please don't forget to post pics when she's open. Golden Lady is so gorgeous, even if she isn't golden yet. I love her tendrils.. well, actually, everything about her. Can't wait to get mine in the spring. Agree with Kin, it's wonderful that you have blooms this time of year. I'm sitting here with a cold, drizzling rain falling outside and snow showers expected by Thursday.
:`-( Waaaaaahhhhhhhh.....

oh, mary, what a thrill to have blooms in december. GL is a beauty, and will wait for your BF to bloom as well.

She looks so sweet, sort of "floaty"....like a real "lady". I have a cutting, can't wait to grow her next Spring....yummy !!
Pssst..Mary...cruise time yet ? (lol) I love it...we went to St Thomas, St Maartin and San Juan in September. It's one of my fav vacations for sure ! God bless, Margo

Congrats Mary. GL was one of my favorites
