A hodge podge bed. Trying for a bush shot of 'Colette' who has been magnificent this spring.

Honor - usual perfect bloom. A bit of measles. But I lust after Pope John Paul.

Love Song at nursery. A very pretty pinky lavender bloom.

Secret - finally caught a truer color. It is dumping yellowed leaves now and making a mess.

Secret as she ages.

Secret's gorgeous form but color is too blue.

French Lace - adore this rose for her delicate shading and good lasting qualities. Mature blooms look like a cream white layered petticoat and my camera blows out the white color.

Heritage - the pick-up-petals rose as she blows fast.

Very nice roses. I always want the French Lace but couldn't find a space in my tiny garden for her.

Great photos. I especially like Colette. And Secret, of course!
Did you get Love Song? I kept mine potted last summer and put it in the ground this winter. It will be blooming soon, I can't wait. It was a great bloomer last season.

Thank you Ladies. .

Dublin ~ looking forward to seeing your Braveheart along that wonderful path. A friend keeps recommended a path but like KhaVi I have a small area so I cram every perrenial I can between the roses.
