Great! The colors on her are just fabulous, aren't they? I had so much fun trading rose posts with you last year! :-)))<BR/><BR/><B>TC ~ </B>Hmmm... 'Disneyland' and 'Lavaglut' are about equally fragrant, which I would describe as lightly fragrant. I've got other roses that are more fragrant than they are. 'About Face' isn't<BR/>'Lavaglut' is such a beautiful, deep, dark red and has so many blooms, although small, it's become one of my very favorites.<BR/>'Disneyland' also has many blooms, but what I love about it is how it has such a variety of color all on the same plant. Check out <A HREF="http://pics.davesgarden.com/pics/kell_1147716846_633.jpg" REL="nofollow">this photo</A> by Kelley MacDonald at Dave's Garden! WOW! I hope mine looks like that when it grows up!<BR/><BR/><B>Lisa ~ </B>Thanks and thanks! :-)<BR/><BR/><B>Brenda ~ </B>Oh believe me, I am NOT a pro! I don't do anything special! Promise! It's just luck!<BR/><BR/><B>Cameron ~ </B>We've had several nights of below 20 here, too, and the roses got it. But they survived several frosts, which surprised me!<BR/><BR/><B>Gail ~ </B>Thanks! I'm not familiar with the Fairy roses, although I've seen them mentioned in many other blogs. I'll have to check those out!<BR/><BR/><B>Kate ~ </B>No snow here yet. I saw some when I first got up today (on the ground), but it was gone a short time later. So many people are getting it in areas not that far from us, but so far none for us.<BR/><BR/><B>Sue ~ </B>I don't spray my roses and while sometimes they look like I should, they generally come out of whatever is bugging them on their own. I don't have any, but I've heard that KnockOut roses are pretty carefree.<BR/><BR/><B>Kim ~ </B>Yes, I think you did drool over it earlier this year when I posted about purchasing it. It IS really dark red and velvety. I was pleased at how my camera captured those features really well. Reds are always tough to photograph. I've discovered something about my camera that helps, and it's really weird, but if I turn it upside down, I get richer colors! Weird, huh?<BR/>'Lavaglut' emits a light scent, nothing remarkable.<BR/><BR/><B>Ilona ~ </B>'Lavaglut' is also known by 'Intrigue' and 'Lava Glow'. Why, I have no idea. Well, Lavaglut is German for Lava Glow.Kylee Baumlehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04288354709094515651noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3070488376505303445.post-81134022829400877532008-11-24T15:59:00.000-05:002008-11-24T15:59:00.000-05:00What beautiful roses!

I just love it when they do. I don't give them their major "haircut" until January just so I can enjoy the blooms for as long as possible.<BR/><BR/>Cindy<BR/><BR/>P.S. You know it's because of you that I have my wonderful Disneyland rose. Thank you!Cindy Garber Iversonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15543940998038589239noreply@blogger.com
