The As:

Albuquerque Enchantment is a perky little mini I got last year from Cottage Farms through QVC (I don't recommend ordering from them though because out of the set of 12 I got 5 were mislabeled). It's a strong grower and regular bloomer for me. It does black spot occasionally. (You will hear that refrain frequently. I live in Michigan, the fishbowl state, and I resist spraying as much as possible.)

Angel Face was one of mom's roses and has been here for decades. Yes she's a BS magnet but she winters like a champ and blooms even when she's nekkid of leaves. Plus she smells divine!

Appleblossom Flower Carpet is a ground cover rose and it will cover ground. It makes it's self into about a 6 foot circle by the end of every summer. It's gorgeous when it's in full bloom. No problems with diseases either. This poor rose has been moved 4 times in the 5 years I've had it. Doesn't seem to bother it one bit. It's grown most every place I've put it!

American Pride is a tentative ID on this "Camelot NOT" rose. I got it last year and it's bloomed well but is very stunted in growth and every bloom droops because of weak stems. I'm not sure it's going to be a keeper.

By the way, Beth is the Alphabet Wonder Goddess, lol! She is the one who does the A's! B's! and so on and so forth...

I just haven't had time to post much of anything. I'm so overwhelmed with working 6days a week, it's hard to find time to even get in the yard anymore. And my new camera is a bit tougher to get good pics with. I have to tweak a lot to get them accurate. And my computer is old and slow. Takes hours to tweak just a few pictures. But eventually I'll get around to posting them.. in the Fall maybe!

Meantime, I'll enjoy seeing your alphabet Seil!! Your photos are so lovely!

AE is a nice mini, sort of like a small Betty Boop!

Your Appleblossom looks so vigorous and healthy. Six feet spread - wow - do you have a picture of the whole thing - that would be interesting to see.

Thanks!!!
