Possibly it was a bad plant, owd. Loved the scent and the flowers and hopefully yours would look as beautiful as the ones upthread! It gets very mixed reviews on FB, like Deep Secret... so perhaps it depends on your garden, soil climate, etc, too.
Your Lion's Rose /Champagne Moment is divine, @Alfie_. Our thread guru Marlorena has a gorgeous one, too.
Thanks @Alfie_ that is my kind of rose! I’m putting some similar into the garden this winter.
If DA is delivering bare root already, should we be ordering now? It’s still summer temps where I am and lots of roses about to bloom, after all the rain. Growth like spring…
Yes I'm getting some nice flowering now too. I have ordered some Kordes bare roots for the middle.
My Ebb tides pretty poor health wise as well. It was being overshadowed, so I moved it, but still isnt too happy so I think I might dig it up and pot it next. Im midway through putting my smaller potted ones into bigger pots. Trays purchased for each for summer ready too. Lots still in bloom here and everythings covered in buds. Its been torrential rain most of the week, yay for my largely rain resistant collection! Snotty tissue (waltz) time is definaley out though!
My lady of Shallot is still outstanding. Ive got nepeta six hills giant underneath, but of course thats rather a floppy space hog. Any recommendations for a less floppy nepeta?

Ah, Lion's Rose and CM are the same? I was wondering how I had missed the Lion's Rose. In fact I have been eyeing Champagne moment for years.
These naming protocols are very odd.
Yes it's very odd indeed. It says here its registered exhibition name is Lion's Rose but lists Champagne moment too:
On main German Kordes website it's Lions-Rose:
My bare roots are coming from abroad and they use the true German name for the roses like the main German kordes website does which is often completely different from the US one you linked in earlier. So on the US website the Bliss from the Parfuma collection is actually called 'Märchenzaube' so took me a while to find the ones I put on my list
@Alfie_ We have had some discussion on these rose threads about how certain roses turn up under various names; for various reasons. It can get quite complicated.
Don’t usually post to forums but sickens me to hear about what Ashbridge Nurseries is doing with this Winchester Cathedral. It was £213 now reduced to £114, I was thinking fair dos someone might pay that price as it’s now retired, for a good plant but they admitted it was bad and in a 2litre pot!…

I used to be indecisive but now I'm just not sure.
Roses eh?
