Initial post 2 DEC 09 by Nasturtium28
I'll post a picture of my own, but there are so many good ones already. I love this rose - the flower form, the scent, the disease resistance, the compact form, the repeat bloom. Tamora does wash out and fade when the nights are warm - I agree with the person from Illinois that, at least in the high heat of summer, the beautiful, subtle apricot color is elusive and ephemeral. Flowers are beautifully formed but washed out in color - but they still smell good!!! When nights are cool however, the nuances of color come out and she is breathtaking (spring and fall). The compact form of the shrub is wonderful. I have one that is 3 years old and 3' x 3'. I will also add that my Tamora is watered only by drip irrigation and she withstands the intense heat of summer very well - I never have to worry about her or give her supplemental water. I never have had a hint of blackspot on my Tamora. She gets a healthy infestation of aphids in the spring that mar the first blooms, and then they disappear and the rest of the year she blooms, and blooms, and blooms, and blooms...
