  2. Hi,
    I just bought a Sweetness Rose, but I can’t find anything on it when I google “Sweetness” and “Rose” everything comes under the sun comes up except that particular rose. Do you have any expierence with this rose? Also I bought 2 Queen Elizabeth roses at the begining of the summer which did really well, I thought they only got about 6 feet tall but I recently read they can get up to 8 feet tall. I also recently bought 2 Pink Smooth Delight roses, (Lowes specials) do you have any expierence with either of these? THanks for letting me pick your brain. 🙂

    1. Hi Kimmy! I think the ‘Sweetness’ rose you purchased was the Grandiflora introduced in 2008 (not the Hybrid Tea from 1919). I found a page on Help Me Find that will tell you all about it HERE. And for info on ‘Queen Elizabeth’ click HERE Your Pink Smooth Delight rose was trickier to find but HERE is ‘Smooth Delight’ described as an orange-pink Hybrid Tea. I’ve had experience growing ‘Queen Elizabeth’ in my former garden. I found it to be a hardy rose (I was in zone 5 at the time) with quick rebloom and good disease resistance. It got about 4′ tall in my garden by the time I left–but I only had it for 2 seasons at that point and I pruned hard in the spring. I do remember it having a small footprint in our garden–slender/not very wide at all. Hope this info helps! 🙂

  3. As always you are AWESOME!!! Thank you so much this is why I stalk I mean drool all over your blog. Beautiful flowers and brains to go with them. 🙂 Thank you again!
