Here's a sampling of what's beginning to bloom, not in any particular order and probably not all visible: Peace, Tiffany, Bewitched, Belinda's Dream, Zephirine Drouhin, Reine des Violettes, Midas Touch, The McCartney Rose, Ch-Ching., Double Delight.

Looking good, Sara. But how come you have blooming roses in your Zone 6 but I have only 3 Home Run blooms in my Zone 6?

I'm sulking, I'll have you know!

Beautiful roses.

Kate don't feel bad - I'm zone 6 too and I don't even see buds yet!

Lovely bouquet, Sara!

I'm in zone 6 too but I don't even have leaves on my roses yet, let alone blooms! That's why it's important to know that not all zone sixes are created equal, lol!

RE: Blooming Today

Thank you. I'm sure all of you will have beautiful roses before you know it. I am looking forward to seeing them. We have weather extremes here, it gets extremely cold and extremely hot! Seems like things started kind of slow, but once it warmed up everything really took off! It is not easy to wait for the roses to begin blooming, I've probably been driving by DH crazy lately!

Love the bright colors. So refreshing. Crappy overcast days with snow. I'm sooooo ready for nice weather.

Which one of those roses is The McCartney Rose?? I've been thinking of trying that one. Maybe next year.

Carol - It's probably easier just to show you a picture of it by itself. This picture was taken last year. It is so windy lately it is difficult to get any decent pictures. The shade of pink is very pretty, I think. It is a good rose for me, has a great fragrance, it has about two dozen buds on it now. I am very pleased with it. I certainly hope your weather improves soon.
