| I couldn't resist--next thing you know, Green Ice was ordered (actually 3 of them). Please tell me I won't regret it. Couldn't find much on it doing the search above, but google search brought up some nice comments about it. I hope they are true.
Appreciate any input.

| It is pretty popular here. I don't grow it, but many do. Whenever we see it entered in the spray categories of our rose shows, it is always in the runnning. Very pretty blooms, with that cute green pip in the center. |

| Hi Kate, Mine is new as of early summer/late spring 2005 but it bloomed continuosly all summer for me. I'm not much of a sprayer either. It blooms green then fades to white. It's quite an eye catcher to me. I don't think you'd regret it. Karen. |

This is truly a great mini. I have a 20" container on the patio by the pool, and I really love it's slightly sprawling growth. Also ideal for a hanging basket, which I have also.
Great blooming and will do great even if you are an occasional sprayer.

| Dublin Bay, Green Ice is Great mini. It reminds me of the Polyantha, the Fairy. Indeed the two of them look very good planted together. Also makes a great rose for hanging baskets. If you like, send me an email and I can send you some pics. |

| Thank you everyone--your glowing comments are getting me quite excited about my impulse buy. And I love all the ways you use Green Ice. Who knows, I may have to buy some more at this rate. Kate |

| I just mail ordered 2 of these plants as well (also an impulse purchase). They appear to be quite healthy. I just potted them up today in hanging baskets. Thanks for all of your information. I am looking forward to these little guys filling out those baskets! |
