Julia Child is my favorite yellow of the four that I grow. Golden Celebration has beautiful blooms, but also terrible blackspot. Charlotte is a pretty, pale yellow. Autumn sunrise was busy growing roots and shoots last season. It's parent, Westerland, did the same thing the first year. I should see more flowers this year.
I went to Lowe's for rebar to strengthen my trellis. They had 10' and 4'. I was told that the 10' wouldn't fit in the vehicle. Arghh. I'll have to keep looking. In the meantime, I hammered the existing stakes and added a few more to keep the trellis from falling.
The local Lowe's only had a few disease ridden floral carpet roses. No thanks. It is early for roses to be in stock here - our last frost date is May 30. The knockouts aren't even in the stores yet. Other people get such great deals at Lowe's. My neighbor got a flat of yellow pansies for a quarter. I seem to hit the store on the wrong days.
