Last in my series of the old garden roses, here's a summary of the Portland Roses. The Portlands are an unusual class because they all descend from one rose of unknown provenance; Duchess of Portland. Later genetic testing puts them as descendants of the Autumn Damask and gallica roses. They were unique amongst the European roses that they reliably rebloom. Here's my playlist on the different types of roses, including all of my previous videos in this series: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLQR908v3Cexx92kTIhbTMnePbE0ty7AHa If you find these videos useful, here are a few things you can do to help us out: Send a tip: https://www.buymeacoffee.com/fvrosefarm Have a look at our Amazon shop: https://www.amazon.com/shop/fraservalleyrosefarm Follow our farm on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/fraservalleyrosefarm Or Like us on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/FraserValleyRoseFarm Photo credits: Old Blush by A.

I had the opportunity to visit Ben and the team at Heirloom Roses in Oregon. While taking a walk around the nursery, we talked about rose growing tips that will be useful for both professional growers and the home gardener. Many thanks to Ben and the team for their hospitality. I was extremely impressed by the level of care given to producing healthy, vigorous roses for their customers - and their assortment is phenomenal! They also host an excellent channel of their own on YouTube. Here's a link to their video with a close-up view of how they produce roses: https://youtu.be/CEzZDlGI6MI If you find these videos useful, here are a few things you can do to help us out: Send a tip: https://www.buymeacoffee.com/fvrosefarm Have a look at our Amazon shop: https://www.amazon.com/shop/fraservalleyrosefarm Drop us a "Like" on our Facebook business page: https://www.facebook.com/FraserValleyRoseFarm/ Leave a review of our farm on Google: https://g.page/r/Cfi8qXv8QReZEBE/review For shareable articles on roses and gardening: https://www.fraservalleyrosefarm.com/articles-on-roses-and-gardening/ Photo credits: International Test Garden by User:Cacophony (Wikimedia Commons) CC BY-SA 2.5 Test Garden (2) by InSapphoWeTrust from Los Angeles, California, USA CC BY-SA 2.5 ... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9onL4TkO-Y8
