| Pretty much everything has shut down due to the high heat we've been having, but a couple did manage to open :) I've included a couple of foliage pics as well.. Enjoy, Tammy Blanc di Vibert "RVR Mystery 2011-07" I kind of like this one :) Green Romantica Dragon Wings (I've never actually photographed its blooms) Ascot Yabba Dabba Doo Fairmont Proserpine Bullata "Lettuce Leaved Rose" ADORE it's leaves! Meteor Lastly, not really a good picture, but kind of funny. This was SUPPOSSED to be "Golden Showers" from Big Lots...I'm pretty sure there's nothing golden about it :) |

| Tammy your roses are lovely! I am loving the crisp clean whiteness of Blanc di Vibert and Meteor is the prettiest shade of pink. Too funny on your Big Lots rose, I bought one from there that was supposed to be Broadway and it is red just like yours with no scent. Blah. I knew it was a long shot -- now I just have another to give away. It's always fun to give them a try though, you never know what you're going to get ;) Andrea |

| Do Dragon Wings and Bullata "live up" to the leaves? Like your blooms. |
|
| I'm really taken with Dragon Wings' prickles and Bullata's leaves--I didn't know roses could take those odd shapes (and be "normal," that is). But your red Golden Showers takes the cake, without a doubt! Ascot as usual is lovely, as are Blanc di Vibert and Proserpine--good photos. Kate |

| blanc di vibert and meteor are stunning! I have green romantica too... mine is more green, but the form isn't anywhere near as nice as yours. |
|
| Thank you for all the comments :) Inga, Dragon Wings just has very very oridinary blooms (single whites that fade fast), but Bullata's blooms are just as pretty as her leaves...big, pink, and beautiful! Tammy |
|
| Lovely blooms, and thorns. Wow, I don't think my GREEN ROMANTICA has ever bloomed. Wonder what happened to it? Nice to see ASCOT. I just got it from Palatine this season. Hasn't bloomed yet. Looks really nice! |

| Your roses are quite nice. Congratulations on actually getting Blanc de Vibert to bloom. It is quite pretty when it actually flowers. Mine had a 100% bud failure again this spring. Do you have any problems with it? I've concluded it doesn't like our climate here. |
|
| Don't let Green Romantica fool you, Beth :) It usually balls like crazy and is a mildew magnet. While the blooms actually opened this time, they are about the size of a quarter! lol Bustopher....I've actually never had a problem getting Blanc de Vibert to bloom...and it repeats decently too. I got mine 3 years ago from Pickering. Maybe there's something in my climate, that yours lacks...weird though. Tammy |

| Beautiful roses but it's interesting to see the other parts besides the blooms! |
