Mister Lincoln Rose

6.26 Mister Lincoln Rose

For a traditional multi-petal red rose, I love the velvety Mister Lincoln.

    Very nice. What I love is the fragrance of Mr. Lincoln and his "brother" roses -- Chrysler Imperial and Oklahoma. Just visited a friend whose Mr. Lincoln is well over 8ft tall, spindly, and not much foliage. He was sited in a spot that doesn't get much sun...

    WeeMo,
    Thanks!

    Nikki,
    Yes! Too many of the newer roses are bred for looks and I miss the scent. That's why I love the Portland from Glendora that you gave me so much. Lovely old-fashioned scent.
