Baby roses planted

 I planted the baby roses this morning. They had shipped on 4/10 but then the frost warnings developed.  I should pick a later shipping date in future. 

Zephirine Drouhin - bourbon rose, climber, pink raspberry scented blooms, thornless. Planted on NE corner of the porch (mailbox area).  
Diamond Eyes - miniature, purple/black/magenta, spice fragrance.  In a pot on the south side of the house.  

Origin - High Country Roses.  Healthy little plants and had a lot of roots when I pulled them out of their nursery pots. 

In other rose news: 
  • Peace Hybrid Tea looks healthy and the new cane from center graft has a bud.  I'm reasonably certain it is true.
  • Big red HT also looks healthy. 
  • Little red HT mostly died back to the ground. Waiting to see if it will put up a cane or not. 
  • Apple floribunda looks great and has a lot of buds. 
  • Red Drifts are both looking well.
