I bought two of the scarlet Flower Carpet roses last year. They have the best color of foliage I have seen so far of all your roses, and the bloom color is amazing. I have two pink supreme in my garden (though) right now the color hasn't had much chance to develop since we have had so much rain. All the other carpet roses that I have planted over the past several years have bloomed totally beautiful this year. The coral was amazing. The pink was like a bright raspberry color this time. But next year 2009, that is the one I have been wating for. I have the perfect spots for two of the new ones you will bringing out for then - they will finish the circle of roses in the front yard around the dogwoods. All I can say is, keep up the good work. Your roses are wonderful. - B.C., USA
