| First blooms look promising. What do you think? Do any of you have any input on Boscobel?

| The only input I have is that I've been wanting one of these for some time now--and your pic has awakened again all my desire to have one. Lack of space--or I would have one already. Isn't it gorgeous! Kate |

| It looks nice. How does it smell? A good smell is a plus for one of these. |

| I have this planted, and buds are beginning to open, but it looks very light pink. Not the exciting color of your bloom at all. What gives? |

| kristy--first blooms sometimes don't come out true to color. I guess the rose needs to gain some more maturity before it can produce "normal" colored blooms--or something like that. : ) Kate |

Oh My!!! That's gorgeous!!!! I want one!!! Stunning!! I'm curious about the fragrance, too. Carol |

| Kristy - The bloom on Boscobel does fade to a lighter pink. I just happened to catch this one on a cloudy and very shady day. As far as the fragrance, so far, I have only noticed a mild fragrance, but I have only had a few flowers on this new bush. Thanks for the compliments. Suebelle |

| I just planted a Boscobel bare root around late March 2014. So far I have 5 blooms. All very lush and full of color. A very rich Salmon pink, later turning into a lighter salmon pink... but not light pink. I've include some photos that I took with my cell phone.. none do it justice. |
