What a sweet hubby. Congrats on your 20th! I remember one year long ago when my husband gave me the same card as he did the previous year. I thought it was so funny but he thought i made that up. We ended up in an argument because i "always start trouble" and he "needs to lighten up". We still joke about it after all these years. :)

Q

If you're going to grow tender things that need to keep a good amount of cane -- in other words, as climbers -- put them against a south-facing wall, and don't try to grow them on something free-standing in the open. 'Gloire de Dijon' will probably be less tender with regards to frost damage, so if you're going to experiment with something on a pillar or post, use that one. If, instead, you plan to grow the others as loose shrubs, perhaps with support, that can be done in the open. Just be aware that you'll probably be cutting them back hard in Spring, and in that case, make sure they're in completely full-sun so that they'll grow back as much as possible every Spring/Summer. I've come to learn that growing tender things like Chinas, Teas, Noisettes, etc. here requires one of two situations -- either protection, such as against a south-facing wall, which minimizes Winter damage, or being planted where they get all-day full-sun in the open, where they'll likely have significant Winter damage but will get what they need to grow back every year. For example, 'Napoleon' is planted against the south-facing side of the house, and it got to over seven feet tall on one fat cane, leaning against the house. There, it gets little Winter damage except to thin stems that hadn't hardened off yet. Planted out in the open is "Bermuda Spice", which gets significant Winter damage most years, but will rebound to at least five feet tall and wide by the end of the season even if cut back as hard as a Hybrid Tea, to within inches of the mulch line. So take that as a guide -- if you want to keep surviving cane from year to year, plant where they'll be protected from damage. If you just want a loose mounding shrub, plant where there's all-day full-sun to promote regrowth after Winter takes much away. :-) ~Christopher

guirlande d'amour Vs. guirlande d'amour?
Q
Comments (20)
I have G d'A and mine is kind of both pictures. The spring blooms are fluffier and they open out more in the heat later in the year. Mine tends to be about the size of a Volkswagen beetle which is quite an accomplishment in a cold zone. I honestly don't notice the yellow centers in mine, and I am not all that fond of most roses that show stamens. Most of the time GdA is a solid mass of white cascading canes that packs a wallop from a distance. Cynthia

pfm, I'm not sure specifically what the yellow daylily is: hemerocallis something or other. Those beauties aren't mine! I saw them while I was out biking. Here in CT, you can only grow daylilies if you plant them by a busy roadside; otherwise, the deer eat them.

I'm enjoying all these pictures. Love the doe and fawns! I have a fawn coming to the house (with her mother nearby) to drink from the pool.
