  • Posted by Newyorkrita (North Shore, Long Island, NY ) on Feb 9, 2014 12:42 PM concerning plant:
    A lovely little rose. So colorful. Makes a nice snall shrub, not very tall. It gets covered in blooms that are not all the same color. Rather, the blooms are a blend of colors, so while the color tones are similar or the same, the flowers are different from one another. Makes a very pretty display. I think Happy Chappy is a wonderful name for a colorful rose that always makes me smile. I am not sure whether it would be disease free if it were not sprayed with systemic fungicide here in my humid Long Island, NY garden.
