I was carefully removing the buds from my new roses, mindful of their need to concentrate on growing roots, but sneaky Madame Berkeley produced three blooms while I wasn't looking.
All eight of mine are growing like crazy in their 2-gallon pots. They'll be more than ready to go into the ground when the rainy season starts in November. I don't remember ever having such good results from rooted cuttings. That nursery really knows what it's doing.
