I can't resist a purple rose. I don't even need to make excuses to buy one if it is in the store!

Route 66

Midnight Blue, lots of small blooms

Ebb Tide

Night Owl

Love Song

Silver Star

Dark Night, purple red

I love 'Ebb Tide'. Resisted 'Love Song' since I have 'Lagerfeld' and 'Angel Face'. Hmmm ..................... time to rethink this.

Angel Face

OMG, I forgot Angel Face, my first purple rose. Thanks for the reminder.
It does very well here in our dry climate.

I'm a sucker for purples, too. Your Angel Face is spectacular!

You have some nice ones there. Your Angel Face is quite showy. Thanks for the look.

I love your purples, some are very dramatic. I think Angel Face is so pretty.

Angel Face looks so romantic. I love the look of it.
Do you get any fragrance off your Night Owl? I don't.

Dark Knight's coloring is so unique. It would probably look good next to Distant Drums.
I love Ebb Tide's color too. Sigh. :)

Thanks for the look at the lovelies!

BEAUTIFUL,Kathy. GORGEOUS, love them purples.I only had one purple rose left and I just gave it to a daughter last week as she loved it so much,and I am not really able tocare for my roses, no more.I gave her EBB TIDE.She was in a argument a few weeks ago with some one at a store that sells a few roses,and she asked if they have any purple roses,and the lady told her there is no such thing as a purple rose and my daughter promply told her oh yes there is, as my mother has one., I told my daughter there is other purple roses, too.and told her to look for MIDNIGHT BLUE as its a nice purple, too.Its a chore to raise roses here because of Black spot is so bad,and the deer a lot worse.but the daughter has a nice fenced in yard to plant hers in to keep the deer out.

I would love to have every single one of your beautiful roses, and in fact have had Ebb Tide and Route 66, but they just couldn't stand my dry heat. Poor Route 66 crisped almost immediately on a warm day, even with afternoon shade. How nice that you're able to grow so many and have them look so lovely.
