Wayside has Lady of Shallot

I planted Munstead Wood last spring from Regan's - seems to be fine - did not notice any blackspot.
I bought Sharifa Asma from from Heirloom a few years ago as an own - doing fine. It performed better than any of the other own roots I bought from them. Last year, I decided to give Heirloom another try since as heard they had new owners. I bought Rosie O'Donnell and another Velvet Fragrance - both jumped clear out of the ground - I was totally amazed. The second Velvet Fragrance is twice as large as the original from Heirloom. If you like Sharifa Asma - you might want to consider buying it from Heirloom.
I ordered Grace from Regan (bareroot) to be delivered this coming Spring.
Had Graham Thomas many years ago - forget it here in zone 6b - flowers would not open up ( balled - I think that the terminology) - blackspot galore. I was turned off of Austin's for many years because of that bad experience.
Observe, observe, observe
We are fortunate to "see" & appreciate nature in ways others are blind.
