Wow such beautiful roses. Alisande if you had a rose as blue as that Iris I bet you would be the envy of everyone.

This is NOT my picture but that of a Frenchman that posts a lot of pictures of OGR's on the Hertigae Rose Foundation forum. This is a picture of a rose garden in Normandie, enjoy.

mgleason....you should post your pic of black beauty on hmf. They don't have any pics of it and yours is beautiful! Is it really that dark of a red? Does it have any fragrance at all?

aggierose - Done. I put two out there. Yes, it really is that dark but alas, no fragrance that I can detect.

I got chewed out by De Ruiters for the Latin Lady pic! I sent it to them and gave them a review of how well this was doing in my garden. They wrote me a long email back saying this rose would not grow in the garden (just a florist rose), and i should not be trying to grow this.

Beautiful pics, everyone. I'm posting 4 (all posted previously) but I grouped them so I'm hopefully not taking up too much real estate...

All these gorgeous roses!! I've been reading up on some of them. (Huttnem, we need names, please . . . )

I can stop trying to pass my iris bud off as a rose because I woke up to some roses this a.m. Ten different kinds, but no real flushes yet. Here are a few:

William Baffin (covered in buds)
{{gwi:300739}}

Dart's Dash
{{gwi:300741}}

Gertrude Jekyll (when I could tear my nose away)
{{gwi:300742}}

Blanc Double de Coubert
{{gwi:300743}}

Most of my roses are still covered in buds, but Morden Blush has started blooming
{{gwi:300744}}

Walkers Low is also in full bloom. There's a rose behind it that will be blooming soon.
{{gwi:300745}}

OK, I'll tease this one and post more on the gallery.

This is Octoberfest
{{gwi:300748}}

Alisande, that's Ladybanks lower left - then going clockwise: Crepuscule, Golden Zest and Abraham Darby. btw, love your Dart's Dash.

Kentucky Rose I love your Octoberfest picture. I have one that is four years old this year but unfortunately isn't growing very gung ho this year for some reason. Pretty much just a three caner growing straight up with very few blooms.
Maybe I need to check her for root gall which I had a similar instance with on my Moonstone. I was able to cut the offending appendage off the Moonstone and the following year it jumped right back to life and is a wonderful rose bush to this day.
Moonstone is one of my favorites anyway.
I had a similar root gall problem but much more of them and bigger to the point I had to SP a previously beautiful Brides' Dream. I replaced her of course in another section of the garden.

Sue - I love the way you title yours' with your name after the variety. I might have to try that.

Paul - WOW! I really like those colors!

Sue, I love those two colored ones. That cherry parfait is to die for. I might have to add those to my must have list.

Gorgeous roses and photography! Does Climbing Maman Cochet bloom more than once?

Such gorgeous pictures, all of them! Thank you for sharing them. May I add 'Tradescant'?

My goodness Harry, look at all those buds, that rose must always be in bloom. There are some great photos here of some beautiful roses.

harryshoe, great pic of Sweet Bouquet. I love hybrid musks as much for their buds as I do for their blooms. Hoovb - so glad you added Tradescant. What a gorgeous rose and photo.
