Mmmmm, yum! I love that Freckles!

I love my Buck's too! I think he had a great eye for pretty blooms. There's such a wide variety of colors and forms in his roses. And a lot of them have wonderful fragrance as well!

Thank you all for the comments! Yes, Freckles is my favorite also! It has huge flushes and repeats quite fast...always a good thing! Mantis...I would have to say that both Freckles and Distant Drums are excellent in terms of BS. My garden is practically a no-spray (I get out about every 4-6 weeks to spray), and these two bushes always have healthy foliage! On the flip side, I would put Prairie Star and Golden Princess as moderatly healthy...they're pretty good, but do become defoliated occationally. Dorcus, I haven't had long enough to make a good judgement on...but it appears to be healthy as well!

I have Carefree Beauty and it is a wonderful rose.

While I love Prairie Star, I can barely get a decent bloom that does not ball. This is definitely one for the hot and dry climate, I think it would do better. Such perfect blooms though.
