My order from Edmunds' Roses will be arriving any day now. They were shipped to me last week. The shipment includes Cinnamon Dolce, All a'Twitter, Music Box, Whimsy, Raspberry Cream Twirl, and Lady Ashe. I also bought a Clematis from them to see how well they handle plants other than roses.

I'd be happier about Lady Ashe if Edmunds' hadn't pulled a fast one worthy of J&P: It turns out to be Dixieland Linda, which was renamed Lady Ashe when it was made part of the Biltmore Collection. I already have more than one Dixieland Linda, and I'd be delighted to find a grafted one, but the Biltmore roses are own-root plants, so I don't expect this one to be any more vigorous than the ones I bought from Vintage Gardens.

When you start posting your new Twilight Zone photos this year, don't be confused by the double listing. We have two Twilight Zone roses in our database. To make matters worse, both are listed as mauve-blend grandifloras. The one you're buying this year, though, is much darker than the older one, which is lavender with a cream reverse.
