Good Grief Beth!!!! I had already decided I wasn't going to order anymore new roses but thanks to you I might have to change my mind!! ARRGH!! You have some very pretty and unusual colored roses. Some are ones I had talked myself out of but now I really want them again. Take care, Judy

Beth, it is so nice to see pictures of all your unusual roses, again. Thanks for sharing them with us!

I agree with Marina, that the photo of Honey Dijon is magnificent, but color-wise today my love goes to the gray-tan roses like Gray Dawn, Gray Pearl, Janet Carnochan and Stephen Rulo. Especially the last one is awfully pretty in my eyes! Can you tell me how this rose is doing for you and where you got it from? Thanks!

Hey everyone, thank you for the nice comments! I enjoy sharing the roses and enabling anyone into trying something different. My all-time favorite is BUTTERSCOTCH. That is the rose that started me on my quest for the unusual.

Christina, I assume you are talking about STEPHEN RULO? I got it from Steve Singer at Wisconsin Roses. It's a gorgeous rose you really have to see in person. I've had mine for two yrs, and it's been a little slow for me. But I had it in a pot until earlier this yr, when I planted it in the ground in one of the "oddball" beds. It's putting energy into getting established in its new spot, so I don't expect to see much more until next season now. But I love the color range on it. Greys, tans, mauve.

Beth your roses are just STUNNING and such a variety, many that I've never even heard of. How do manage to take care of that many roses and keep the all so Beautiful. My picks are BROWN VELVET & JANET CARNOCHAN, but they all are just GORGEOUS. Thanks for sharing and keep them coming.

Beth, yes I was asking about Stephen Rulo! Thanks for providing me with some more info about this rose.

Looking at your photo of him again, I find the the rose irresistible. And a color combination of grays, tans, and mauves it truly unusual. Maybe you just sold the first oddball rose to me :-)! I will go over to Helpmefind and see if I can find some more photos of it...

RE: The Odd & the Unusual... LOTS of pics

Beth, I've had the same experience as you with Stephen Rulo, glad to hear it wasn't just me... ;-)) Now to find a place for it in the ground.

Thanks for all of the photos!

RE: The Odd & the Unusual... LOTS of pics

I have checked this post several times and all the roses look lovely.Every time I check your post on the gallery,I end up adding one or two names to my wish list.(which is not always good because here in IL it is not possible to grow all the roses you grow.)
Can you share your experience with Janet carbochan with us,please ?
