When they get some nice blooms on them I will definitely take some pictures of the blooms. Of course, I do have a few from last year like these
of 'Rouletii'

About all I need now is to find a Tagetes (Mexican Mint Marigold) So that I have Texas Tarragon
and then I will be able to harvest the rose petals (pink) I need one cup and then once the Texas
Tarragon is growing I get a cup of the leaves and make Rose Tarragon Vinegar

I normally use Nature's Way Rose Soil which has been approved by the Houston Rose Society. It is really great! You can probably find a good soil
in your area of Washington State.

Is the rose soil a potting soil? If so, where do you purchase it?

OK @porkpal you should be able to find it as it is more or less local. Now I usually get it at
Southwest Fertilizer in bags but you can check with Nature's Way and potentially get it in
Bulk. I really love many different Nature's Way products including the Citrus Soil, Rose Soil, and
the Leaf-Mold Compost. I would say they are all great products. Check out their website!
