They remind me of musk mallow. Do they get small, okra-like pods?

Do these come back every year or are they like regular roses and stay all year round even without flowers?
I have a rose garden and wonder if these are anything like my roses. They are pretty, that's for sure.
God Bless

They do come back every year, they die back in winter and you cut then back and new ones comes back in spring, They flower and stay green all the way up to very cold weather sets in, No there not like a reg, rose Busch

beautiful, want to know how you ship a live plant? to zip code 77089 ( texas )

Jul 26th, 2012 at 8:49:36 PM PDT by

I have sent a lot of them to Tx. lately. i don't dig them up until I am ready to ship them. I dig them up the same day with some of the dirt there in, then I put a wet paper towel in with them to keep them watered, lol then I slide it down in a paper towel roll to try to keep them from getting broken in the shipping,so far it has worked. but if something happens to it, I will replace it. Hope this info helps O I ship it through. the post office.

Thanks for posting the pictues in your yard! I had quite looking because credits got to high for me.
As for the quality of her plants - I won a canna lily from her. I rec;d it on July 11th - alive and healthy. I didn't have time to plant it so I added a little water to the baggie intil I could get it in the ground.
It is now Aug. 2nd and it is still in the baggie on the kitchen counter at 2 feet tall and all I have done is add a little water if it loks like it is getting dried out.
Everyone is stunned that these plants a growing in a baggie.

Aug 2nd, 2012 at 12:51:18 PM PDT by

LOL, They are very ez to care for and if you just put them in water just the roots they will grow and have babies, Thanks for your up date. Glad you like them.

Aug 2nd, 2012 at 12:55:56 PM PDT by

Aug 2nd, 2012 at 1:00:03 PM PDT by

Yes, the new ones are starting to come off, so I will put them on next week.
