| Who would imagine a Mister Lincoln that was somewhat bushy and a dwarf...? LOL This ML was planted in Nov of 2010. Here's our own-root Mister Lincoln at only 2ft high... Yes I pruned it way down to the ground this Spring to just see what it would do...

| Nice to see Mr. Lincoln blooming down near earth where the rest of us reside. He's usually blooming taller than I am! Hope your experiment of drastic pruning works out in the long run--my other HTs never objected when we had a bad winter and I had to chop them down to a few inches tall--so maybe Mr. Lincoln will actually thrive on such treatment. (But don't try that with my floribunda Eutin--which I did, and it has taken a couple years for Eutin to get almost back to "normal"--and Eutin is otherwise one tough rose. Think my Austins would strongly object also.) Kate |

| I think Mr. Lincoln is the most gorgeous red rose ever produced. So velvety as your pic shows. Congrats on your nice bud count. |
