Not all of these are good pictures but sometimes I feel like this color class gets neglected and I love it...

Lavender Pinnochio -getting a good pic of this one this year has been my bane....

Feel free to add pics of russets I dont have to this list, I'm always looking for more. Although I don't have Hot Cocoa by choice, I detest the orange it gets in heat.

RE: Russets

Thank you for a look at these distinctive roses! I especially liked Ash Wednesday and Lavender Pinnochio. I'm thinking I want them. Is Ash Wednesday a once bloomer?

lol, My name is Juliet too!!

ok, on your question, I believe Ash Wednesday is classed as a once-bloomer and certainly hits a strong spring flush typical of them. However I get repeat bloom from it as long as temps stay warm but mild say in the 70s to very low 80s.

I may have a cutting of Ash Wednesday available, it still has to survive the transfer to soil (and I kill a LOT of cuttings)

Email me if you are interested.
