I hope this link takes you to the exact picture I'm trying to put here, and not the whole page with many pictures on it

My question is this about the picture: in this garden how close together do you think these roses are planted, and is that ok? I mean it looks beautiful, but are roses supposed to have more space between plants? I'd love to get this effect along a border in my garden.

If you look at the fence, it is likely that the posts are set every 8 feet. Looking at the timbers to make the beds, those are also sold in 8 foot lengths.

Guessing that each of those "beds" (note there is a timber going toward the fence at what could be 8 feet) is actually only holding 2 or 3 bushes every 8 feet. So yes they might be tight if you like the look of bush space bush. But they might not be nearly as tight as the look from the angle of the photo.

FYI the local rose garden seems to use 2 feet spacing for most of the roses. At the beginning of the season they look far apart and at the end they are a big mass of plants
