    ..you have a nice clump... perhaps Heleniuim 'Short and Sassy' might suit you ?.. 

    Rubinzwerg has a nice dark colour but fades a bit I find, and the flowering season isn't as long as some others.. 
    East Anglia, England

    @Imprevu thank you. I'm inclined to agree with you. It's labelled Ghislaine but yes I was expecting the colouring to look like yours! Ah well. I'll put actual Ghislaine on my list for later on this year and grateful for anyone able to identify!

    Hi everyone, sorry for bothering you again with my questions! I have decided to take out Etoile de Hollande, as it grew even taller (probably over 4 metres now) since I last posted its photo and I just cannot cope with its vigour. I would still like to have a climbing rose there and would love to hear your suggestion/recommendation.



    It’s a north facing wall and I would like something smaller/manageable and less thorny than EdH. 

    Harkness recommended The Prince’s Trust. Does anyone grow it? I’d love to find out more information about this rose. Any suggestion/recommendations would be greatly received.

    Many thanks in advance!

    @Nollie I was going to do the Chelsea chop, but last year that helenium was much shorter, so I didn’t consider it necessary. I might divide them and move them in the spring and try the Chelsea chop on one of them to compare.
