I dont. I was trying for a scarlet, not orange-red or dark pink, so thats what im hoping for! Im not terribly lucky with roses though, my last attempt was 2 climbing roses to scale my woodshed. They grew well, flowered well, but they have no inclination to climb at all! They look a bit daft planted where they are now. Ah well.
