| Zepherin Drouhin is a magnificent color. How short do you make her at pruning time? Do she blossom all along the cane? TIA |

| Thanks Iris_Gal .This was pruned heavily the summer of 2012 to about 3 feet or so.. I guess that helped. She is 7 years now!!!She maily blossoms on the laterals, and I bent some canes to produce more laterals.. I did not know it would.. found out later about pegging .. |

| I love that song from Tangled - which was a really good movie. Wow! Your Zeffy is amazing!!! And I've always liked Ballerina (I don't have it). How is Ballerina's repeat? Lovely roses! Carol |

| Thanks Mailshadow. Laterals blooming is exactly what it looks like. And if she can be kept in control, why then she's a candidate for my tiny garden. Almost thornless it says at HMF. Wow. |
RE: And when the moon light, turns to June light !!!

| Thx Iris_Gal.Actually, she us COMPLETELY Thornless. Her canes are very flexible , so she must be easy to train. She can get Huge if you let her, but if you keep her controlled she will do well too-- like I pruned mine in 2012 to only 3 feet -- even the main cane was cut off.. She always bounces back though , nd how.. The only problem with her is after the spring show is done , she gets black spot here in my zone 6 NJ Climate..I do not yet spray on my roses..I let them be.. she comes back in fall, and throws up some flowers- not as heavy as spring flush, but interestingly , her fall colors are a deeper pink , I Highly recommend this rose. |

| Canadian_Rose, Ballerina is a delightful different rose .. Her prettiest flush is in June. However , she ALWAYS has flowers on her. Even now, in november . She does not seem to have too much of a fragrance .. but in June, she can teach those Hydrangeas to control their pride ...and tell them that she is the queen after all.. I think she is a pretty strong rose.. I had her in the front of my home which is north facing and due to deer problem, she grew but was not super happy-- deer preferred my other roses to her though and she was their last resort.. So, in 2012, I transplanted her in the middle of hot summer to ny backyard which I got fenced and she lost EVERY LEAF.. I thought I Killed her, but she rebounded and is quite happy. She too gets blackspot ,and because her leaves are very small , it shows more on her.. I think next year I will spray her with a fungicide to control it a little.. But again , a delightful rose. |

| Love, love your roses! I smiled as I red your "poetry" and looked at the accompanying pics.....thx for sharing. Nothing smells lovelier than Jude the Obscure... |

| Your roses are just spectacular, especially ZD and her special color. I love Ballerina, a favorite of mine, and yours looks lovely against the classy fence. Jude is also another favorite, a real beauty. Thanks for the glimpse of your garden. Diane |
