Edith’s Darling from Weeks Roses Downton Abbey Garden Rose Collection
New for 2017 in the Downton Abbey Garden Rose Collection is ‘Edith’s Darling,’ a fitting tribute to the Lady Edith Crawley character and her beloved daughter, Marigold. The blooms of ‘Edith’s Darling’ are a soft apricot color that is delightfully old-fashioned. The petals on each flower grow softly darker toward apricot-gold in the center. Each 3-inch bloom boasts 50 to 65 petals. The fragrance is much like a fruity, fresh-cut apple.
Small in size, with a compact bushy habit, ‘Edith’s Darling’ is the perfect choice for containers or for a tidy spot in the garden where a show of fragrant, full-sized blooms can be viewed up-close. The two new Downton Abbey roses for 2017 follow the success of ‘Pretty Lady Rose,’ which is new at retail stores in Spring 2016, and ‘Anna’s Promise,’ which was introduced in 2015. Both of these roses have proven to be very popular with gardeners. Booth: 13015 and 14016

RazzMatazzTM grapes color to an iridescent pinkish red starting in August, and the fruit is fully ripe in early September when the grapes are a deep, dark red. The fruit has a floral aroma and a sweet flavor. The grapes can be eaten fresh and used to make jam, jelly, or wine. ‘RazzMatazz’ grows best in well-drained soil in full sun throughout USDA Zones 7-9. The vines reach 8 feet long, and should be trellised for optimum production. ‘RazzMatazz’ does not need another variety for pollination. Booth: 13015 and 14016
