Bolder and brighter (part 1)

These are some of my favorites--the ones that call to me loudly across the garden.



more Tuscan Sun blooms and bush



Crimson Bouquet has it all for me--deep red that doesn't get pink or blue and it takes the heat, too.



Chihuly looks great in spring


Chicago Peace again


Christopher Marlowe has small blooms, needs support, but is so nice up close.


Joseph's Coat has been all yellow and pink this very cool spring (no oranges and reds)


Tequila Sunrise

There's no doubt that they do call loudly! A bit much for me, but if it works for you, more power to you! Besides, anyone (like me) who grows Peter Mayle sporting his hot pink shirt can't really comment on how loud someone else's roses are--right?

But seriously, gorgeous photos.

I love the bright ones that stand out! I need to replace an Easy Living that is slowly dying. Which do you like better, your Tuscan Sun or Chihuly? Or any other suggestions?

Beth, Chihuly and Tuscan Sun? I'd probably choose TS as it gives more blooms over a longer season. I am glad I can have both, though. Eureka is a fantastic orangy yellow rose, too.
