| What a treat to see these little-known roses (at least to me). Petite Orleanaise is cute beyond words. Not so petite either if that's all one bush! They're all marvelous photos, Masha, as usual. I so appreciate your showing so many roses from this wonderful public garden. Ingrid |

| I think these photos are better than ever! Did you get a new camera? Like Ingrid said, your pics are usually marvelous but these are particularly spectacular. I love every one of them and they make me want every rose you've shown us! Thank you for posting! Annabeth |

| Masha, thanks for the spring tour through the San Jose Heritage Rose Garden. The roses are so gorgeous there and it is always so much fun to see some lesser know varieties. Great photos as usual! Christina |

| Lovely pics. It's really interesting to see the pic of Mme Alfred Carriere. It's new to my garden, planted last year. I'm really looking forward to seeing it in bloom. |

| I am also impressed with these great photos. I am so glad to see whole bush photos--it gives us a good idea of how some of these roses mature. Thanks, this is a treat! |
|
| Thank you for your wonderful comments. I have a DSLR camera and I shoot in RAW. Masha |

| I'm glad this thread rose to the top again so I could revisit these beautiful roses. Petite Orleanaise (nothing petite about the bush!) is my absolute favorite. Thanks Masha. Ingrid |

| Surely a master's work! I absolutely adore those side close-ups like that of Petite Orleanaise and Sparrieshoop looks lovely to me as well! Jana |
