First year plant had nice spring flush but no repeat which I found that unusual for a floribunda type. Lost the potted plant over winter. Loved the Eden like flowers so much I bought two more plants and placed directly in ground. Again no repeat and now in August of third year! Not a single bud and I’ve never seen the usual flush of new growth after the first blooms fade either. Plants just sit doing nothing. Shame, the flowers are so pretty and long lasting. Some fail to open during rainy humid weather. My plants are somewhat squat, splayed and thorny. They stay healthy enough with infrequent systemic spraying. This year is however is quite wet and I sprayed only once so blackspot struck. Can’t explain the lack of repeat and will re-evaluate their occupying centre stage if I see no change.

Cl Perle d'Or and Ravensworth (a pale yellow sport of Perle d'Or) were sent to Canada. Does anyone know if they are available there now? Can plants be sent to Europe from Canada?
Sending plants to other countries from Australia costs too much.
