Clematis of the Week.

2009-04-25T06:06:00.001-07:00

Clematis William Kennett

William Kennett is a Early Large Flowered Type, the blooms are 6 inches across. The plant is hardy, zone 4 thru 9 and grows to 10 or 12 feet. This clematis blooms on the previous season growth so you don't want to prune it the early spring. The first bloom period is spring thru early summer. When it is finished blooming clean up the bush and give it a trim, deadhead it and William Kennett will bloom again for you in September. Pruning group 2.

Wonderful planted with a yellow climbing rose. Here it is pictured with a yellow peony. Try matching it with Golden Gate, Lemon Meringue, or even the white climbing Iceberg would be gorgeous.

We do not yet ship Clematis but stop by the nursery to see our clematis selection. We have shipment a of 250 coming the first week of May. Some of our favorites, Arabella, Durandi, Ruutel, Marie Louise Jensen, Venosa Violacea....well I could go on and on. Stop by and see them for yourself. We will be glad to assisit you in your choice.

Rose of the week, LUNAR MIST

2009-04-23T07:33:00.000-07:00

Our rose of the week is a climber introduced by Star Roses here in United States in 2007. Wonderful old fashioned bloom from the Romantica Series. Deep ivory with a yellow undertones, and a spicey fragrance. We are excited about this rose as it is very hardy, zone 2 thru 8, vigorous, with excellent disease resistance. Height of 8 to 10 feet, and repeat blooms throughout the season. It is all budded up and ready to bloom in the greenhouse, just waiting to be picked or shipped to your garden. $15.95 for a strong growing plant.

We are Open!!

2009-04-09T10:41:00.000-07:00

Happy New Year 2009!

Northland Rosarium is enduring almost 77" of snow already this year! Wow! They tell us we only need 15" more to break the century's record. In the meantime, we will continue to carefully watch over our rose-filled greenhouses. The plants are doing splendid! Above are a few favorite photos from our snowy holiday at the Rosarium.

Paul's Himalayan Musk Rose

2008-07-07T13:56:00.000-07:00

We recently visited the fabulous rose garden of Anne and Max Belovich in Stanwood, Wa.! This crabapple tree blooms twice; once with it's own blossoms in spring and again with Paul's Himalayan Musk Rose later in June! This is just one rose and it's perfect trellis, the tree! Ruth Mano, on the left and I are both about 5' tall so you can see how huge this rose is! This sight inspired me to put a Paul's into my Korean Ash tree in the front garden. In a just a few years, I hope it will look as fantastic as this in our display garden! We have lots of Paul's Himalayan left if you want to try this in your own garden!

The Roses are blooming!

2008-06-29T14:01:00.001-07:00

The roses are bursting into bloom. Stop by to see the garden Wednesday through Saturday 9 to 5. The light pink climber is John Davis and the hot pink climber is William Baffin. Lots of other roses to view and a nice selection in the sales area.

Greenhouse Manager-Donna Schmauch

2008-06-07T08:54:00.000-07:00

Our greenhouse manager Donna Schmauch on early Monday morning picking out roses for shipping. Our mail order customers have been ecstatic with the roses they have been receiving in the mail. If you have been hesitating this comment from a recent mail order customer might convince you. "

I arrived home yesterday to find the box from Northland, and I have to thank you so much for the wonderful service & prompt attention to my order! The plants are in excellent condition & beautiful; even blooming! One is for my daughter & of course one for me too!

I’m sure I’ll be back again, and I’ll certainly recommend you to my friends & family! M.H.

Roses, Roses and more Roses!

2008-05-15T07:27:00.000-07:00

These two roses, Golden Celebration and Hot Cocoa were blooming side by side in the greenhouse and color combination caught my eye. I think Julia Child and Hot Cocoa would be striking companions in the garden.

April Pruning Seminar

2008-04-22T01:29:00.001-07:00

Spokane Rose Society held a pruning seminar here on Saturday. There were 40 plus people in the garden and we had a very informative day. Heather Figg, Loren Moll and Lynn Schafer did the actual pruning and they had their work cut out for them. Heather and Loren tackled a big rugosa called Conrad F. Meyer and a large climber called Collete. Lynn gave a demonstration on a Hybrid Tea's with some good information on tools and gloves. Lynn is available as a Master Rosarium to answer your questions about pruning. Check out the Spokane Rose Society at www.geocities.com/spokanerosesociety for Lynn Schafer's phone and other Master Rosarium's. Heather and Loren can be reached at 509-448-1436 to help you with your pruning questions. Many thanks to these hardworking Rosariums.

Pruning Seminar

2008-03-30T11:44:00.004-07:00

Spokane Rose Society was scheduled to hold a Pruning Seminar at the Rosarium on Saturday, March 29th. Here is what the Rosarium looked like on that day. Needless to say, SRS has rescheduled the Seminar for April 12th at 11:00. I hope those of you planning to come will be available on the 12th. We are going to prune a Hybrid Tea, a Climber and a very out-of-control Rugosa called "Conrad F. Meyer." Join us if you can. The Rosarium will be open on April 9th. That would be a good time to pick up your fertilizer and soil amendments. See you then!
