It finally warmed up today we hit the 40's and was finally able to get the roses covered with mulch it warmed up just enough to melt the ice out of the bags so I could get it down did not want a repeat of last year, the past couple weeks has been miserable here amazing how fast the cold came on was expecting a gradual downward slide not the deep freeze we have had lately. I suppose it could be worse couldn't imagine 8 ft of snow or whatever they got on the east coast :blinking:
I got rained out this afternoon so came in and started looking over Kieth's catalog from last year and thought I would share some pictures of some of his seedlings he talked about in the catalog as potential's. This 1st group is from the cross of Silk Road X Roaring Twenties 06-77 it was my personal favorite in his garden was pretty much awestruck on them, for those who didn't get the catalog he wrote in it that this cross was his best and most productive in 60 years and we all know he has produced some amazing plants just by reading our lists from above so that goes to show just how good these really are. I don't have pictures of them all but these 6 were the ones that caught my attention with my favorite of the group being (F) but would Love to have any of them. They are all different and have a beautiful blend of colors and patterns perfect form and branching loaded with ruffles they are all something to get excited about. Hope to see them all get a name someday.
I am curious if you had to pick 1 which one is your favorite of these.
