Ordered 3, 3 gallon roses last year. 2 came with black spot and despite my best effort, dropped 75% of their leaves within weeks. I dealt with that. 2 didn't flower at all, I dealt with that. The one that did bloom, bloomed in an odd color, I dealt with that. Then it didn't come back this year, I hardly ever lose roses to winter (just lucky I guess). It was the ONLY rose I lost this year.

The roses were at a great price and one was High Hopes, my husband's favorite. The two survivors are growing nicely although one looks again like it probably won't bloom this year (Zeffy Drouhin), but I understand that is common. The only reason I am giving them a neutral is due to the two being covered in BS and then the one blooming an odd color. Other than that, I can't blame them for losing one to winter.

Well, it took 5 years but Zephirine Drouhin finally bloomed. FINALLY.

High Hopes did not survive the winter of my initial review and rating. So one rose out of three, and five years to bloom.
