Which horrible house? I moved a couple of times. I am finally in a nice lake community with wonderful neighbors. My roses and I are tired of moving!
Beverly looks beautiful. I will have to research her!
I tried Distant Drums. It had an interesting form, but was a weak grower. I would like to grow more Buck roses. Especially if they are like Honey Sweet - blooms and form like a healthy hybrid tea with the resilience of a shrub rose.
Another strong grower is Queen Elizabeth. I have read good things about her. When I found a healthy specimen at a bargain price this spring I brought her home. She is getting ready to bloom - living in the outer garden with Bill Baffin and some rugosas.
