Some of them like The Dark Lady, Charmian, Rasberry Parfait, Belinda's Dream and Coquette des Blanches have only been in my garden a year or two while others like Cottage Rose, Duchesse de Brabant and Sister Elizabeth are older friends. I hope you like them.

Oh! I like them. Your photos are outstanding. Most of them look like 3D, they almost come out and get you. ha-ha :>)

There are so many lovely roses here that I can't quite decide which ones I like best, and I don't have time to mull over them right now. I'll give everything a closer inspection tonight, but in the meantime, you might tell me more about Raspberry Parfait--I caught my breath when I saw it!

Lovely photos!

Ingrid, I really like all the beautiful colors of the blooms, the William R. Smith reminds me of ice cream.

Charmian is really lovely, love the pink Austins.

Thanks for the lovely photos Ingrid.

Your Sister Elizabeth is so much lighter pink than mine was, mine usually looked lilac in colour with button centres.

Your garden is lovely.

Gorgeous photos. Cottage Rose is so pretty and feminine and I love the frog statue :D

Souvenir d'un Ami and The Faun are my favorites! I don't have a place for more pink roses, but I am always drawn to them. Thanks, Ingrid!

Really enjoyed your roses, specially William R Smith and Souvenir d'un Ami, which look very similar. Thanks for sharing!

Thank you all again. Robert, my Sister Elizabeth is just like yours when it opens fully. Steve, usually Souvenir d'un Ami is the darker of the two and also has smaller blooms. They're both winners.

Daisy, I'll try to get some garden shots. The garden looks not as nice this year because we had to take out the lush green tree in the front; it was buckling up the pavement. I also have a lot more disease this year, probably because of our freaky weather.
