| I hate this pic. Didn't realize there were 2 palm trees! Not my cup of tea with roses. A nice flowering cherry would be good. 'Secret' has put out way too many canes. Because of neglect? I'll get the stepladder for next pic. Secret - Tracy'92 - looking darkish this Nov. |

| Yes, cherry trees with roses would be lovely! There sure are a lot of flowers on your Secret rose. Is the fragrance as nice as I've heard? Looks a lot like my Gemini. Carol |
|
| Yes to the fragrance! It is lovely. My nose cannot detect any wafting like I can with climbing 'Royal Sunset' and 'Abraham Darby'. I couldn't smell 'Pristine' (its parent) and since they looked so alike I shovel pruned her. 'Gemini' out here has quite a dark orange edging. I'm giving mine to a friend. It's never had the soft feminine pink that 'Secret' usually has. Inga, I'll get on that stepladder :-) |

| Forgot to say this is rather sparse bloom. |

| Do you know what root stock your Secret is on?? I've heard conflicting stories about this rose on different root stocks. |
|
| Ken, sorry. I don't know the root stock. |

| Iris_gal. - Like the way your Secret looks, it's lovely. Mine has barely grown. |
