Hi, I have a rose here called "double delight" does anybody know much about this rose, in particular? I just got it and the package didn't say much.
Thanks

It's a gorgeous red and white!! Large blooms...Black Spot..yuck!!! I thin every rose gets BS!!! Mine does not have any yet.. I have a ton that do, and I'm getting sick of spraying fungicide every week...I just got a Knockout rose and so far it's doing great...Every rose I have (about 50) all said "BS resistant" yeah.. right...If the Knockout does good, I'm planning on replacing any dead ones next year with Knockouts...BTW...the Japanese Beetles have not gone near it...but that's another story.. Enjoy Double Delight...it's a beauty..

Zone 5? That stinks. I'll have to put something over it for insulation then. Hopefully we'll get a lot of snow then.
Sounds like it will make a great rose. Thank you so much, Ivy and Newt.Vigorous; hardy; good disease resistance; spreading, bushy habit; glossy, medium green abundant leaves; mildew resistant; must have an open sunny location; does not tolerate wet weather; 3 foot spread; good cut flower; free flowering
