| I can't get photobucket to work--won't upload my pictures--so I'm trying out GW's method--one pic at a time, I guess (if this works). After complaining about my Munstead Wood bud just sitting there staring at me and doing nothing, it finally burst into bloom. Isn't it beautiful! Munstead Wood--first bloom ever! |

| Here is Mortimer Sackler going crazy with blooms. |

| Not the best picture of Jubilee Celebration (I love her)--tried to get her with the climber Eden in the background, but it didn't work too well. |
RE: More first spring blooms!

| OK--if Eden climber won't share photo space with Jubilee Celebration, I'll just have to give her her own photo to star in as the central attraction. Here it is. Eden climber--drool! She knows she can get away with being a DIVA! |

| And here she is for her close-up. (She's so vain!) Eden climber--close-up |

| For those of you who have inquired, here is the infamous DR. HUEY! Found him growing in a shady corner in a spot where I took out a grafted rose (grafted to Dr. Huey, obviously) about 7 years ago! And here is the good Dr. patiently waiting to do his thing 7 years later! I personally really like the Dr. Huey bloom--good color and shape. My only objection to Dr. Huey is that after his one-time blooming period is over for the year, he gets every disease that the garden is capable of producing--and he gets them bad! He is a total blackspot disaster then--but rather lovely during his early blooming period. Dr. Huey--resurrected. |

| That's all the new blooms for now--but I still have other roses that haven't opened yet, particularly the new ones I plant this spring, so hopefully I will be back soon--and hopefully photobucket will be working by then, cuz this one at a time posting is tiresome---but better than nothing. : ) Kate |

| Beautiful! Thanks for sharing Kate! That Eden is absolutely breathtaking. Josh |

| Your roses are glorious, Kate. Eden Climber is the loveliest I've seen, and Mort is outstanding. I'm loving my new Munstead Wood, which began blooming in its pot before I could get it planted. Yours looks just as wonderful. Let us see more when the rest of them start popping. Diane |

| Lovely! They are all gorgeous. But Eden just makes me sigh. :) |

| Munstead Wood is breathtaking! Jubilee Celebration looks like a winner. And, of course, Eden cl. is a stunner! Your roses are wonderful! Which ones have good fragrance?

| Carol, I'm not real good on scents, but Munstead Wood and Jubilee Celebration are supposed to have strong fragrance. The other roses shown have less--but they do have some fragrance. Looks like Eden Cl. is the winner in this thread, doesn't it! Well, she always knew she was! LOL Kate |

| Really nice, Kate! I'm a fan of Dr. Huey too I have to admit. He showed up in the back of my front bed a couple of years ago and I just let him ramble over the top of my azaleas. He seems to bloom right as the azaleas are fading, so its a good trade off. That Mortimer Sackler is really pretty too...love how its a nice full bush, rather than a bunch of octopus canes. Eden is stunning also. Mine too is a diva...she uses one of my grapevines for support...God forbid she should allow be to tie her to a chainlink fence! Tammy |

| You have some nice ones there. Munstead Wood is certainly a nice variety. Too bad pictures can't convey its nice fragrance. |
