| Thanks, Jim. I didn't spray this year and guess what? The ladybugs prospered and ate all the aphids. Like magic. Of course, after much hosing off for days. But I haven't hosed them for a long time now. |

| All gorgeous, Kathy, but I'm loving that Pure Poetry! |
|
| I saw two bees in one of the pictures but no lady bug..where did I miss it? |

| Thanks for the brilliant photos! I,too, like Pure Poetry best. I had no idea it was multi-petaled like that, - my favorite form! Was that orange rose Hot Romance, and the next one with the open blooms the same rose? If so, that is a remarkable change! |

| I like Gourmet Popcorn and Candy Cane together, but all of your roses are right up my alley. I love the orange blend roses best! Coral Seas looks a lot like Marmalade Skies. So bright. Little Artist is that lovely scarlet and white that is so pretty together. Renee |

| It's hard to believe the difference between Hot Romance bud and old blooms. All are delightful. Thanks. |

| Beautiful pictures! I have not seen 'Little Artist' & 'Trumpeter' in years. Where did you order them from? |

| A co-worker who wanted only cutting roses gave me Trumpeter years back. I got Little Artist at a local nursery quite a while ago, also. Little lady bug is on older bloom of Hot Romance. Pure Poetry has always been a favorite. I took cuttings and also have it in a big pot. Luckily, that is, as the in ground one seems to be declining this year. I wouldn't ever want to be without this rose. Thanks for the nice comments! Kathy |

| Those are lovely. The only one I didn't like is the faded bloom picture of Hot Romance. One of my pet peeves. :) Pure Poetry lives up to its name. Just love looking at your pic of that one!! Going back up for another look. Little Artist looks so fresh and fun. I love that one. Kaleidascope is just beautiful with the soft colors. Wow I really enjoyed that!! Carol |

| Carol, a pet peeve of mine, too. I usually hate that fade to red-white, but these blooms were just staring up at me, trying their best to look good and not be deadheaded. I couldn't do it. |
|
| Gorgeous roses as always Kathy!! TRUMPETER is really cool! I have CORAL SEA but it doesn't hardly ever bloom. Bums me out. Wish it looked like yours... |
