Natalie Scarberry on Aug 31, 2013It is a rambling rose and should be putting on long canes and it's not. It is alive, but it's just not taking off the way it should.Helpful Reply

Natalie Scarberry on Aug 31, 2013Hi Grace, I can't believe you are in Burleson because the rose I'm talking about has been planted in Alvarado. When you say tea, do you mean any kind of tea?Helpful Reply

Catherine Smith on Aug 31, 2013Roses need a least 3 years to become established, That may be your problem. It's a gorgeous color. Cecile Brunner is a climber and your friend will need to provide adequate support for those long canes. Just feed it regularly and water deeply, it should do just fine.Helpful Reply

Natalie Scarberry on Sep 02, 2013No they will bloom right away, but after about 3 years they hit their stride and bloom more abundantly. Cheryl I buy a lot of my old roses like this one from the Antique Rose Emporium in Brenham, Texas. If you'll got to their website you'll find info about all the roses they ship and it will tell you what zones they do best in. Good luck with growing roses and have a blessed day.

Awildrose60 on Sep 03, 2013This looks larger than my Cecile Bruner, which is tiny, known as a sweetheart rose. I have a(2) huge bushes, a large climber and one I rooted. Is this the true color of yours? Mine is very delicate baby pink.Helpful Reply

Natalie Scarberry on Sep 03, 2013Oh, my, I just realized that I grabbed the wrong photo. This is Perle D'Or. It does look bigger than it is because I zoomed in so close. But you are right, the Cecile Bruner is a baby pink.Helpful Reply

Natalie Scarberry on Sep 24, 2013Thanks, she may have to dig it up and move it and I will suggest putting epsom salt in the hole first. Blessings, NatalieHelpful Reply

Patricia on Oct 12, 2013If your friend's rose has stumpy, spindly canes, you can encourage it to produce new more vigorous ones next spring by sprinkling Epsom Salts around the base of the bush in early spring and scratching it into the soil. And some fertilizer wouldn't hurt either. I have 2 of this variety--one is a monster and one's barely limping along, so I've put a note to myself in the shed to try the Epsom Salt fix on the slow-starter next season. This has done wonders for rejuvenating my bush roses, BTW. Good luck!Helpful Reply
