100 degrees, air filled with smoke from numerous terrible fires, I am trying to remain inside and look at photos. Despite the heat and bad air, some roses continue to do great in Hades.


St. Patrick laughs at heat


a bunch of Eurekas opening


Julia Child


Sultry bush came to life after I rooted a bunch of cuttings to replace it.


Chicago Peace keeps on


Chihuly came back


I absolutely can't say enough about Love Song!

Ugh. 100 F. is too hot. I wilt in the 80's.

You've got my 2 favorite yellows - St. Patrick and Eureka. I'm getting more and more fond of your Chihuly. Still on the fence here on Carruth's roses. Heresy I know.

Your success in rooting encourages me. Finally rooted my first. A noid yellow Austin-looking that may be Golden Celebration. Need to do Abraham Darby as Dr. Huey rootstalk is overpowering it. Next to impossible to get to the base.

Thank you, for the beautiful blooms.
Love song is my fave.

Those are all gorgeous! Who would have thought they would be such heat-lovers.

That kind of heat doesn't arrive here until later July and August, but my roses just go into sulk-mode and do nothing until the cooler weather returns. How did you train yours to buck up and do something? LOL
