zuzu said: My Impressionist came from Heirloom and didn't last long. It arrived as a tiny toothpick and didn't grow much beyond that in the first two years I had it. It started growing in the third year, reached about 24 inches, and dropped dead. It did produce two or three blooms before it died, and they were beautiful.


Don't get me started on heirloom. I give hortico more grace lol I have 2 left from my only order from them maybe 10 years ago bouquet parfait and heritage. After 10 years heritage was only one cane the base is as big as my thumb. I saw heritage at a botanical garden and it was massive . So I don't know if I should
Blame heirloom or the rose or me lol but I still blame them for sending out barely rooted cuttings for what was then nearly 30 dollars I think they are charging way more now. Nothing from them can be planted you gotta have a green house to grow them out for a year or 2.
