I have this rose, and I’m not sure what variety it is, but it looks a lot like Earth Angel. It blooms repeatedly and has a subtle fragrance. I’m not sure how to train it. Would it be a good idea to train it along the balustrade, or would it be better to let it grow as a bush?
Sugar rush stripey, Jamaican mushroom yellow, KS peach starrkist, and the last one was supposed to be Fatalii but I don’t know, the peppers are really small.
This was the very first rose I ever planted, and after all these years I still have no idea what variety it is.
I bought it as Eden Rose, but it is obviously not Eden Rose. The bloom form makes me think it could be a David Austin rose, yet I haven't been able to match it to any specific cultivar.
The flowers remind me a lot of The Pilgrim, but my plant doesn't behave like a climber at all. It produces upright, fairly stiff canes and blooms only at the tips of the shoots.
Some buds show a hint of pink before opening. Fresh blooms are a rich buttery yellow, then gradually fade to a much paler cream-yellow as they age. The fragrance is light rather than strong, but definitely noticeable when you get close.
It blooms twice a year in my garden: a main flush in May and another one around October. I’m in zone 7a.
I need some help on my fertilizer routine. I have 20-20-20 and 15-5-30 and Epsom salt so I’ll want to use it if possible because I purchased them in high quantities and don’t want it to go to waste. I’m thinking:
20-20-20 once or twice a month?
First month going outside (may): 1 tbsp/ gallon
Then in June when flowers started to form until harvest
15-5-30 twice a month?
Dose: 1 tsp / gallon
Epsom salt once a month?
Dose: 1.5 tbsp liquid (equivalent of 25g)/ gallon.
I find it interesting that we have 3 cats, and she’s the only one interested in red light therapy. I mean, she loves it so much. Sometimes she even touches the lamp with her nose, that’s how close she stays. Btw I only use it for red light, not NIR so it should be safe. I’m wondering why the other cats aren’t interested in the lamp at all.
