I want the very light shade of Heavenly Blue morning( the original) glory.For the last few years, and maybe you have noticed too, the Heavenly Blue is a medium blue. I would also like Wedding Bells morning glory. It is lavender.I can trade seeds of Gray Morning Mist morning glory ( True gray with picotee) and Dwarf Chocolate Japanese morning glory.I will match the number of seeds you can send me. Thanks. PS If you have an unusual morning glory, especially a wild one from the Western U.S. or Mexico, please contact me too.

Joel, Wedding Bell Farm is no longer. Charlie Lomangino sold it a few years back. They still make compost there though. I'll ask about it today at work, they supply dumpsters to collect horse manure at local farms and tracks. Mitch

I got this hybrid tea last year on the Lowe's clearance rack, and I am very glad I did. The blooms are beautiful, large, and long lasting. The fragrance, while very pleasant, is not as strong as described on the Star website (www.kordes.us). I'd describe it as moderate. I agree with others that the foliage is very clean. It should be happy in both spray and no-spray gardens (although perhaps there might be strains that would prey more successfully on this plant in other areas). The plant didn't drop any leaves whatsoever during winter here (by contrast, most of my other roses lost all their leaves or at least some), which suggests that it would likely be hardy in colder climates. Here is the very good summary of Wedding Bells in the 'Roses Without Chemicals' book: https://books.google.com/books?id=HLiNBwAAQBAJ&pg=PA236&lpg=PA236&dq=roses+without+chemicals+wedding+bells&source=bl&ots=YJdV-8Fk0L&sig=vaul7e7yJGUFHBWdhGOnjBqUwbY&hl=en&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwiilMzv3b3bAhVLwVQKHYBbA9QQ6AEITTAJ#v. I highly recommend this rose.

I got WEDDING BELLS from Palatine in 2013. It's in a 16" pot. It did ok the first yr, but the last 2yrs it's not done much of anything. I seem to only have pics from 2013, and one from last yr. The funny thing is.... I'm totally re-doing some areas of the backyard, and have most of the potted roses back there waiting to be planted in the new beds. I was looking for it a few days ago, and can't find it! I guess it must be one of the handful of ones missing tags (dang squirrels). In looking at the pics from '13, I didn't see any disease, but I know the thrips loved it! The only pic from '14 is an ugly thrip-damaged bloom. 2013 2015 Not a great rose so far. I don't remember the scent. I just hope it does better in the ground!
