I had a brutal fight with my Georgetown Tea rose today, and it is tempting me to dispose of it. It is not a tea rose by any means and is at least 10' x 10' x 8' tall. I worked my way behind and through it to open greenhouse windows. I pruned one side of it way back last year and gave up on the other side because of extreme heat. Now it shows no sign that it was ever pruned. If it weren't for the gorgeous roses and its reblooming habit, it would have tasted Brush-B-Gone already. If anyone wants a really huge rose bush with ATTITUDE, come dig it up! I even have a little tractor with a backhoe that I will loan you.
