| A fairly new plant for me. I planted it last year. Did two flushes and just sat there. This year it's a little bigger and is making another flush. But then again it's not supposed to get very big. The colour last year was very apricot and this year more peach. |

| Charming. I like this year's color and muddled center. I've come to appreciated the changing faces of these apricot/pinks. |
|
| Either way it's a lovely rose. |
|
| Thank you. Next year is year three and I'm really hoping it takes off! I'm hoping it blooms more than twice a year this year. |
|
| Lovely either way! |

| Does yours get any fragrance? Mine never did. Love your photos - and what a nice way to exhibit them. Carol |
|
| Thank you guys! Mine does have a fragrance. To ne it's a strong fruity tea smell. |

| Oh, that's really interesting! I am, sadly, in the half that can't smell it. Oh well. It does bloom a lot though. Carol |

| Gorgeous! I'm waiting on the bareroot that came a month ago to completely leaf out. Very small rose. As you mentioned about scent: my Mom can detect roses I consider "scent less" but can't detect the Bourbons. She can detect most Austin's, some Damasks but not Noisettes. Do you grow other Austin's?

| Here's some of the blooms later on. They faded to a nice apricot with peachy tones. Mines still small! Have only had it a year. First year ever planting roses...it suffered lol. I myself can't detect alot of old roses. And if I can it's never as strong as other people say it is. I have only one other Austin as my space for roses is less than ideal, and small. If he made more small roses. The other Austin I have is Abraham Darby and he's a machine! I love him acc his fragrance. |

| Ordphien, I just received Anne Boleyn, Wildeve and Portmeiron. They seem like they will be rather small--more like polyanthas. Pretty blooms and fragrance! Another suggestion would be Crown Princess Margareta (which gets large but you can send her UP rather than WIDE). I've tied her to a tripod. I have Tamora in a pot and she is pretty and smelly.
