Iris - That's a lovely rose, a variety I've always admired.

Pretty!

I wish mine would look that good!

Wow!! That's impressive!! What a beauty!!! I wish spring was here, then summer wouldn't be far behind. I'm sick of winter!

Your season is coming! I'm looking forward to everyone's photos.

Seil ~ this one is 3 yrs. old now and still not a terribly large bush per CA standards. My friend is in her late 80's and thought it was red when she choose it!

Really pretty! (Does it sell better being called Voluptuous, I am wondering?) I have not seen this one before.

Your going to like this rose it just blooms and blooms and its a stand out in my garden

Iris, I've had mine for 6 or 8 years now and it's never bloomed well for me. It's down to a one cane wonder and may not even make it this winter.

That's sad Seil. Maybe Volup. cannot take the prairie winters. Good heads up for other gardeners.

Phatboyrose --- lotsa pics please. What's in your hanging baskets this year?

5 days later ~ same bloom a bit lighter but not quite as much as the camera says

Oh that's got staying power!! Love, love the color and shape!! mmmmmm
