    Love your roses! Tiffany is my favorite rose of all. Love that rose!! lesley

    Yes, Tiffany is gorgeous!

    I love blends also. Here are a couple of my newest ones--just began blooming during the past couple weeks.

    Lady of Shalott (Austin)--I love the subtle shadings on this one, but did you see the pink and yellow stripes on the left side? Don't know if that is a freak accident or a permanent feature of the Lady, but I think it is just lovely.
    {{gwi:279301}}

    Little Sunset (mini)--this little beauty just won't quit blooming. I'm impressed!
    {{gwi:342330}}

    Love & Peace--this one is not very floriferous, but wonderfully beautiful when it manages to produce a bloom.
    {{gwi:288160}}

    Gypsy Carnival--another one that isn't very floriferous, but when it blooms, it is one of my absolute favorites.

    I have some others--cuz I really like blends--but those are some of my very favorite blends.

    There are so many beautiful blends here that I don't know how to pick out favorites!

    I love brittie's Spiced Coffee. And harmony, that Agnes rose is outstanding--never seen one quite like that. And of course Marti Gras is fantastic also! And all the other are beauties too!

    Tammy--that Hot Cocoa pic is great! And so is brittie's General Schablikine. Like I said, too many gorgeous roses here!

    Blends are my favorites way over solids, which look the same every day. Blends always are a little different and are exciting.


    the other Abracadabra


    Kaleidoscope

    {{gwi:251953}}
    Route 66


    Tequila Sunrise--I like the bleached out ones, too!


    King of the blends, Chicago Peace


    Queen of the blends, Hot Romance


    No one is prettier than Summer Fashion


    Eye Paint

    Thanks for giving me an excuse to post more photos!

    So many beauties on here. I don't know if that's enough enabling so I'm going to add Handel(climber) and Cherries'n Cream(shrub).

    I'm still drooling, from all this "eye candy".

    Lovely blooms, everyone.

    Ah, kathy, we can always count on you for the full-bodied colors--but Chicago Peace outdoes them all. I grew it years ago in another garden--still remember its wonderful colors! Eye Paint is outstanding also.

    rainbow--Cherries and Cream is new to me--very interesting--I need to check that one out some more.

    Ketchup and Mustard. So far, I am pretty impressed with the form and health of this rose.

    Oh, my. These are seriously enabling. I must have more room for some of these somewhere. I'm loving Kaleidoscope and tequila sunrise.

  • jewelie6

    This thread is making me seriously consider a lighter yellow-white-pink blend for my garden. Summer Fashion, Sunny Abundance, Eternal Flame. Gorgeous!

  • dublinbay z6 (KS)
    11 years ago

    Isn't that Eternal Flame lovely! Of course, all these roses are wonderful, but aren't Purple Tiger and Rio Samba wonderful!

    But I'm especially glad pelican posted the pic of Easter Basket. My first one--after one bloom--got RRD and had to be trashed. My second one is sitting there with two nice buds and I'm waiting, waiting, waiting! You gave me a little foretaste. Thank you.

    Easter Basket is one of my favorites. It is so frilly and feminine.

    I haven't seen Disneyland in my meanderings in a while. For me I think it's up there in the "must have" category. Whatever that thing is that those certain roses do to us individually - it does for me.

    Beautiful pics everybody!

    Harmonyp... your AGNES WINCHEL is mislabeled! That's CHERRY PARFAIT. AGNES has a blushing pink picotee, not red. Sorry, I don't have a good recent pic of her to compare, but look on HMF.

    Oy! This thread is dangerous! I want!!!

    I've been trying to get some photos together to get on here for days but things seemed to conspire against me this week. I bought a new camera and was so excited and then so disappointed with it that it went back. While my mind was trying to get around that I didn't notice until late that I had THRIPS!!! So now all my blooms look like they got beat up and my show is next Saturday and I'm in a panic to hopefully get rid of them so I'll have at least a couple of decent blooms for my show. sigh...

    But I put together some photos today just for this thread. These are old camera and pre-thrips so they don't look too bad.

    Seil, what happened to your pics? I was really looking forward to seeing them.

    Hope the exhibit went well.

    Oops! Sorry, I moved them to a new album. Forgot that would mess things up. I'll repost them.

    In no particular order here.

    Thank you, seil, for taking the time to repost those pics. What a terrific set of pics!

    Granada, Summer Fashion, Garden Party are superb, but Dream Come True, Honorine de Brabant, and Falling in Love are lovely too--as are all the pics!

    Really, a wonderful set of pics all around.
