Still have some blooms

14 years ago

Even tho it's getting cold, I've still got tons of blooms opening up. Some look pretty good, and others not so much! These are decent ones from yesterday and today.

Wow, nice shots! The Vintage mystery is beautiful, and so is James Biddle (never heard of him before). How is his fragrance?

Shreveport is perfect for Halloween.

Is its color affected by weather? Some of the HMF pics show a blush (?) orange. TIA

Masha, I dunno if JAMES BIDDLE smells or not! Seems like I did take a whiff yesterday and there wasn't much. It's so cold right now, not many of even the stinkiest roses seem to smell. JB came from either Hortico or Pickering many many yrs ago. He gets pretty tall.. like 5ft+ and blooms pretty frequently.

Thanks Harold and Jim!

Wes, that's actually sprinkler water on PURPLE TIGER. We haven't had rain for a couple weeks.

Iris gal, my SHREVEPORT is almost always a deep, non-fading orange blend.

All very beautiful Beth, but my favorite is James Biddle which is gorgeous and new to me. I love seeing exciting new roses that I otherwise would never know about. Thanks so much.
