Maurizio, I know exactly what you mean about precious autumn blooms. Each one counts more than double :-)!

Your roses are all so gorgeous! My absolute favorite though is the Tea rose 'Anna Jung'. I have never heard about that one and will check it out on HMF. On your picture it looks so scrumptious, delicate and utterly beautiful. I am just loving it!

Thanks for posting and I am sure you have more wonderful roses in store, which I would be excited to see! Hint, hint...

Beautiful Maurizio! Thank you for sharing these lovely roses. Anna Jung of course steals the show since she's unknown here and such a beauty.

Maurizio,
All of theses roses are so beautiful. I'm wondering, if you had to choose one from the 1st three pictured, which would be your favorite and why?
Thank you,
Kitty

Thank you for appreciation :o)

Kitty, they are quite different, so you can choose looking to each one peculiar qualities.

'The Reeve'is a small plant, with tiny leaves and stems, bearing big peony-like blooms. They smell "myrrh" like 'Constance Spry'. Good rebloom and heat proof, perfect for a pot.

'Radio Times' is a little bit "rough" both in growing habit and leaves, but flowers are perfect in shape even in the middle of the summer, and have a powerful fragrance, like Damask Rose and citrus peel.

'Princess Alexandra of Kent' is one of Austin's Roses a in the 'Abraham Darby' style: smooth, modern looking leaves, big globular flowers. I have to take time to evaluate it, as it's still young. Maybe its color is not the very best: it's bright and rich, but a little bit dull... we'll see. Very good fragrance, like A.Darby ;o)

You see: they are different! But if I have to choose only one, I think I'd choose 'The Reeve'. ;o)

Ciao,
Maurizio

Maurizio,
Thank you so much for the detailed information. Sadly, I can not get them all right away because I have some others I must purchase 1st. I totally respect your opinion so, I will start with The Reeve. I may have to get 'Princess Alexandra of Kent' as well because I saw on HMF that it is a zone 2b. I find that kind of hard to believe though. Anyway, I really appreciate your help.
Kitty
