Rose clusters

I'm not real happy with the quality of these since I reduced their size - but these are a few from this summer that are either clusters or plants.

Midnight Blue - it's hard to capture this great rose plant with the exact "real" color, but this is close.

Morden Sunrise - my family loves this rose. It is tough, blooms constantly, and always looks fresh.

Darlow's Enigma - always in bloom, great fragrance.
Photobucket

Quietness - It takes a hiatus in the heat of the summer, but is stunning the rest of the season.

Carefree Sunshine (and friend) - I love this rose: bulletproof, always in bloom, the color holds in the blazing sun, and it has a soft, lovely fragrance.

Hope you enjoy!

Midnight Blue and Darlow's Enigma are my favorites. I can imagine a garden with just those two roses, with companion plants to fill in.

You did capture Midnight Blue's color quite well :) I have a terrible time photographing reds and purples.

I have Night Owl, which I really like - the flowers close in the evening - and the colors are very similar. Night Owls are darker though. But they're singles I think. I really like your Midnight Blue. Well done!!

Quietness is phenomenal - I really, really like that one!!
Darlow's Enigma is so pretty - the stamens are so lovely against the white.

Thank you so much!!

Thank you all - I do so appreciate the comments.

As an aside, Carol, I failed miserably with Night Owl. It was classic - healthy as a mule when I planted it, and steady decline thereafter. Oh well.

Luuuuuv Quietness. I have it too and its kinda stingy with blooms but when it blooms its gorgeous. Midnight Blue is quite pretty too. Thanks for sharing, Judy
