| My 'Barock' is in its third year in my garden. Has been lucky to spot it at Hortico three years ago.
I grow it as a large free standing bush, the canes are sturdy and do not need any additional support. The blooms are awesome in form and color, I only wish they smelled a bit stronger. Please take a look.

| Thanks, everybody! Yes, Barock is a strong grower. Large graceful bush, lots of blooms all over the canes. I am afraid I made a mistake, it is its fourth year in the garden, not third. Thank you, Renee, for correction. I wish Hortico has it again - I would not mind getting another one... or two :) Marina |

| Those blooms are huge and totally stuffed. I love that look. And so many blooms. The color is grogeous. You've really done well with that rose, I can see why you would want another one. I just adore the 2nd picture. Wow!! Thanks! |

| Oh my goodness, this rose is really absolutely stunning! Great that you snatched one up when it was available at Hortico. The color is very unusual and sophisticated. That is what I love about roses, you think you have seen it all and then ta-daa... surprise, they come out with another truly gorgeous one that is different form anything that you know. Thanks for sharing this beauty with us here! Christina |
