Your new roses are luscious. I love the scents they have.. We are just now in our home long enough to know where to plant things.. many blessings, marlis
We have two new roses to plant today and were just talking about moving something to make room - but then I read that put roses in containers. We have two enormous containers - a great way to put a rose or two in a place with sun and no soil. Thank you!
I love roses and have 4 that have been faithful bloomers in Denver. In Breckenridge, only wild roses will grow and sometimes they only provide hips. Your photos of the roses are wonderful, Snap - I can almost smell them. I met a couple from Houston when we stopped over at Beaver Creek on the way home from OR. They talked about the heat and drought.
You must have a magnificent garden. These mosaics of your roses are absolutely beautiful. Four new ones this year...that is wonderful. I hope they do well. genie
Bonjour dear friend, Your roses are magnificent, one more enchanting than other, I love the soft pink, the romantic energy from these roses and your collages are perfect!ARtwork! Hugs purrs and love to your heart, Luna and mommy Léia
Sending a rosy hello from Frog Hollow Farm! Thanks so much for stopping by my blog post about Panicale - we loved our visit to that wonderful little farm! Your post is very inspiring, my husband and I have tried raising roses but have not had much luck with our two bushes. Do you have a good beginner book on roses that you would recommend? We visited the rose garden at the Brooklyn Botanical gardens a week ago - I'll be posting about it in a few weeks. Ciao, bella! xxoo
I can smell the fragrance, feel the slight leatherines of the petals, and feel the cool air in your beautiful garden. Thank you for such a beautiful post!
We are awfully hot and dry here in Florida! But we have 2 rose bushes that do really well. I love your first mosaic with the small pics and larger ones mixed in! Very dramatic! ♥
Your roses are lovely! I really like the salmon pink color, but they're all beautiful. Aren't you glad to have the fragrance, because so many roses don't have a fragrance, to speak of. Thank you for visiting my blog and taking time to leave a comment. Have a great week!
Every day I watch as the earth cracks.We are in an extreme drought.I am surrounded by huge oak trees and I don't thinkeven if my neighbors water,they can water enough to keep them alive.
In Musashi's Garden, my postage stamp backyard,I get a break from the drought.I have small citrus trees and one Japanese Maple.
It's the roses that bring me great pleasure.I have four new roses this year.

Enchanted Evening is a lavender floribunda rose.It is a little darker purple at the center with a silvery reverse.They have a citrus like scent.

Double delight is a hybrid tea that may be very familiar to you.It has been a big favorite of rose lovers for quite awhile.It received high honors in 1977 by AARS.Creamy white flowers brushed with deep red and a wonderful spicy fragrance.

The Bill Warriner rose is a cluster floribunda filled with salmon colored flowers.It is named in honor of Jackson and Perkins' chief hybridizer,Bill Warriner.

The fourth new rose is Sun Flare.Sun Flare is a rose hybridized by the legendary William Warriner.Disease resistant, hardy floribunda with non-fading yellow bloomsand an unusual licorice fragrance.
All of these roses are compact enough to be in containers that I can movearound the garden to get the best location to make them happy!
Thank you to our hostesses:Mary for Mosaic Mondayand The Tablescaper for Seasonal Sunday.
Wishing YOU WELL and a JOY filled week.

Your roses are lovely Snap. It's the aphids that keep me from growing very many but I have most certainly enjoyed yours.
