Wow very nice indeed!

Your roses never fail to amaze me. I would crash the car if I drove by those beauties : )

As usual, an outstanding job. You have an artist's eye for composition. Interesting to hear LP is hardy in zone 5. To the tips? Do you protect? -Paul

Simply amazing!

Oh my God, I am speechless, simply stunning :)

Michael

Thank you!
Paul, LP is one of the hardier HTs. I had only 25% dieback last winter, their first. After pruning I had almost 2 feet of green cane left on them. It was a mild winter but all my other HT's died almost to the ground. Baileys sells it as a 2 yr own root as one of its hardy roses.

Unreal! I have never seen such amazing color! I'm definitely adding this one to my wish list. Your photos are very nice.

OMG.That is amazingly beautiful. i would simply just park in front of your house and sit and suck in the beauty,Wish mine would grow and look like that.Just too gorgeous for words.Thank you for sharing them.

Jean

Wow! Those are amazing!

Pappu.....Wow!!!!!!!!!!!! gorgeous pics of a gorgeous rose....you are very talented...

One of my favorites at the old house but Mine was never that 'clean'. How often do you spray?

Ronda

Those roses are gorgeous ! I am also very impressed with the beautiful leaves - so glossy and thick - and CLEAN !!! Thanks so much for the pictures. That may be one I will need to add to my collection next time around.

Those are so beautiful I hate you. Guys like you really make folks like me look bad. Hmph. (wink wink--well, not the part about you making my rose efforts look bad)

Absolutely stunning, indeed. What a wonderful splash of color for that spot.
John

Wow again! I always look forward to your pictures. I hear such good things about Love & Peace I'd like to give it a try.

Pappu~ Your Love and Peace pics last year enabled me to get this one for my new rose bed... I only have one, but your mass planting sure looks awesome!

Mark

Thanks all!
This one is a must have rose! And in multiples!
I spray once a month with Bayer fungicide. It is very disease resistant for me. The best thing about it is it's glossy leathery foliage and a bushy habit which is unusual in HTs. Very vigorous too...These are grafted plants but Bailey nurseries sells 2 yr old own roots which should definitely be better for colder zones. I keep throwing alfalfa in whenever time permits and they really love this...They look their best in the fall flush and I will try to post pictures..

Perfection !!!! Pappu you are gifted with roses!!! Fabulous job!!!thumbs up!!!wow...!!! more than impressive!!!!

When I grow up, I want to grow roses just like these! Very impressive combination, although I think the roses are the real scene stealers.

Whatever Pappu grew turned out beyond beautiful!!! You will find lots of gorgeous threads Pappu has graced us with!!! Judy

Thank you, Jim, for posting these links. I would never have seen these amazing roses otherwise. What a gardener!

Big THANKS to Jim!!! Its astounding like i have witnessed a garden magic, not less. As i previously noted pappu is GIFTED.So true! i just dont have words to say enough praise!!!

These are all beautiful. I looked at each and every thread.(Thanks Jim) Are there any more, or does he no longer post?

I think Pappu has moved a couple times since these pics Lisa...

Wow! I am so jealous! That is beautiful!

Thought I'd bump this thread. Anyone know what Pappu is up to these days? I'd love to see what he has going on in his garden!

Wow incredible!!

I bought Love and peace because of these pictures.. we have not heard from pappu for a long time..you definitely should check out his other postings just incredible ..in my books he is a legend all his roses looked absolutely amazing

I know right! I already have. Going through his posts is like binge watching my favorite TV show lol. I used his idea of planting magellan zinnias in the rose garden I planted for my parents this spring. They haven't taken off like I'd like yet, but that's probably because it's been cool and rainy. I've learned a lot from pappu for sure. Definitely legendary!

This collection, and layout, is stunning, and of course well thought out.

Anyone know if @pappu is still around in the forums or anywhere else? I'd love to follow him if he's posting anywhere.
