Chicago Peace--getting your money's worth!

A truly top ten rose for me. It has been going non-stop since May. The heat doesn't affect bloom size. It is not great as a cut rose and I don't think it has much scent. Still, it is a favorite for me as it seems to love the heat.

in May,

in June,

in July

in August,

Oh wow!!!!

I love this rose too. But man, yours are seriously gorgeous. Mine always seems to have blooms.

The August shots are particulary stunning. That's some rose!!!

My daughter (17) just walked in and asked me to tell you that she loves your roses too.

Thanks for showing!!

Carol

Like a snowflake, no two Chicago Peace roses look the same! Mine are very subdued in color, yours just POP right out!

Very pretty!

Beautiful. It's in my top 10, too. Anyone have desert peace? I had high hopes for it, but mine's disappointing.

It looks very fresh in the heat, very colorful.

I'd be inclined to call her August Peace rose.
Truly beautiful. Thanks, for letting me share the enjoyment.

Thanks for the comments! M Heck, I also have gotten the paler pink blooms but none so far this year. I don't know what weather conditions bring that color scheme on.
