This is #4 KA x New Orleans Lady - Hybridizer is Brenda Delph.
This brug might not be picture perfect, but it has the best scent of all... Starts out bubble gum powder scent in the evening.. then the next day it smells like Jasmine! If the scent would only drift a little more... oh wow..
Those little monkeys are at it again.
Your description of its fragrance sounds sooooooo wonderful!
ZZ - that is a gorgeous form! How do you get it to grow so perfectly straight? I know the obvious answer must be trimming. However, I had buttings that were rooted and couldn't get that affect from them. The seedling I have, now that should be possible. Any advice?
Amanda, the cuttings you have are probably from above the "Y". No matter what you do, you won't be able to get them to grow straight. Allow the new shoots that sprout close to the bottom of the main stem or from the ground to grow. Those are the ones that grow straight up. Seedlings do the same thing — grow nice and straight.
Joyce, that's a beauty. I love fragrances and sometimes put up with shapes I not too crazy about. I'm not too crazy about exposed necks, but if the fragrance is to die for, I'll put up with them. LOL
Aha!! Well, thanks, bettydee!! I do greatly appreciate it!
