'Racy Lady' rose Reviews & Comments
HelpMeFind's future is in your hands - Please do not take this unique resource for granted.

Your support of HelpMeFind is urgently needed. HelpMeFind, like all websites, needs funding to survive. We have set a premium-membership yearly subscription amount as low as possible to make user-community funding viable.

We are grateful to the many members who have signed up so far, but the number of premium-membership members remains too small for us to sustain the current support and development level. If you value HelpMeFind and want to see it continue we need your support too.

Yearly membership is only $2.00 per month and adds a host of additional features, and numerous planned enhancements, to take full advantage of the power and convenience of HelpMeFind. Click here to start your premium membership..

We of course also welcome donations of any amount. Click here to make a donation. Donations of $24 or more receive a thank-you gift of a 1-year premium membership.

As far as we have come, we feel HelpMeFind is still in its infancy. With your support we have so much more to accomplish.

Freedom Gardens has stated that Racy Lady and Whisper are indeed different and indeed sisters, and that Racy Lady was retained by them instead of Whisper because it has been hardier for them. Good to know!

Is "Racy Lady" available in U.S. under another name? Also looking for a red HT named "Leslie". Saw photos of both in a N.Z. rose garden.

I found one at Home Depot under the name "Whisper." The other websites I've hit also seem to indicate that as an alternate name.

Sorry about the nine year wait, but if you're still sitting at your computer waiting for an answer, the "Leslie" rose you asked about may have been the red HT "Leslie's Dream", aka "Pavarotti". This rose is much better known (in New Zealand at least) by the latter name but for some unfathomable reason a group planting in Dunedin Botanic Garden is labelled "Leslie's Dream" and the usually very knowledgeable rose garden curator wasn't aware it was one and the same as "Pavarotti".
