I'm sure that y'all have already noticed what a novice like myself (2 year roser) has noticed. That roses, not only grow differently, but are different colors in different climates. I am a person that really likes to know what the color of the rose will be in MY climate.
Is there a way that you could post the city or area of the country or countries (e.g. Northern Cal.) alongside the photo? This would really be a great addition.
Thanks for being a great site. And if you can't , you can't. Thanks, anyway.

I cannot click on a members name and display their member page, is it just on my computer? It is a very helpful tool.

Wondering why I can't go to member pages like I could before by clicking their name above a post?
Update: I'm sorry, I didn't mean to post to this page, I was just asking a question and happen to be on this page. Is there a page for questions about HMF?

Apparently survived -7F in a quart pot with no more than 4 inches of snow as did Paul Neyron. They're still leafing out now and a covered Monsieur Tillier from the milder winter before did a full flush of blooms in a pot but then the stems blackened from the bottom and quit. So we'll see but they look good now.

I suspect that is overly optimistic! We had an average winter here in Zone 5b, and my 'La Reine' suffered a good deal of dieback, despite being given the most mild spot I could give her. (She's right next to the related 'Mrs John Laing', which was nearly tip-hardy.) I think 5b is an accurate estimation.

She needs fast drainage. Has been in my zone 5 garden for 6 years with more than 1 foot of green cane. My 1st La Reine died due to poor drainage, and my current 2nd La Reine: I put it in a raised bed and it's winter hardy.
