A rare beauty, Distant Drums is a wonderful shrub rose with unique colorings with ruffled petals that are bronze-brown in the center shading to lavender toward the edges. Bred from 'September Song' X 'The Yeoman,' her large, cupped, fully double 4” blooms of 24+ petals are heady with a myrrh fragrance. Distant Drums is an outstanding rose...

They shipped it the wrong time I wasn’t able to change the shipping. They shipped it to me in December and expected the Rose to make it. This was a replacement. I’m a cut flower farmer and I have a lot of roses. I’m frustrated because my replacement wasn’t able to be changed and shipping. I would’ve just waited if I had the opportunity or option to.

So far, so good
My little Distant Drummer seems happy in its new location, though I confess I didn’t make it all the way to the recommended 6’ deep for its planting hole. The rose arrived in excellent condition and its light-deprived leaves greened up almost immediately and is now leafing out more fully. It’s still early days, but so far there’s no reason to be anything but fully satisfied and quite optimistic.
