Neal, you are right I have ordered Buff Beauty and you mentioned previously how big yours got. I am really in two minds about the spot I have selected not only because of your comment on the size but also the conflicting comments I have read elsewhere. A reputable vendor here in Switzerland gives the size at 80-100cm (typo??) another in Germany 100-150cm, and yet another 150-200cm. Been reading up on some of the German forums and quite a few people have mentioned Buff Beauty is not that winter hardy and requires protection?? I am wondering if the smaller size mentioned by the Swiss vendor takes into consideration the winter dieback???
Still have time to reconsider because my order hasn't arrived yet - hopefully next week
Zuzu, I looked up Concerto and was wondering why I have never considered ordering such a beautiful rose! I think it was because it is reported to be only slightly fragrant. Might have to think about it for next year ....
