| Beautiful blooms and foliage, Ingrid. Your garden looks wonderful to stroll around in. What's the dark colored rose in the first pic? |

| Dynamic garden photo, Ingrid. My eye flows to the array of colors. They blend well. Goes to show that color variety can be compatible in a garden if you place the plants right. Your garden is coming along wonderfully, sweetheart. Juliet |

| When I saw this photo I thought about the post in which you were feeling bad about your garden. How beautiful it looks. I'm trying to remember if Oneto Home Saffron has an AKA. I love that color! |

| Lovely garden shot, Ingrid! What a beautiful soft yellow orange color Oneto Home Saffron has! I am curious to see how this rose will look when it matures. This must be either a very rare rose, I couldn't even find it on HMF or does it go by another name, too? In any case I am glad that you are growing it! Christina |

| Your garden is beautiful, Ingrid. Congratulations on your OHS bloom, it is lovely. Masha |

| Thanks so much, everyone. Krista, the purplish rose is Wild Blue Yonder, which has beautiful, very large and fragrant flowers and a gangly tall undercarriage, at least for me. Oneto Home Saffron is a rose that I think Vintage got from the SJHRG. I believe Masha saw it there and took pictures. This is my first bloom and it's not very large, perhaps 3 inches, and I don't think the blooms are ever huge. The color however is so unusual, somewhat like a Lady Hillingdon bud and yet somehow richer. Christina, I believe OHS is the study name for this rose and no one knows its real name. Hard to believe this rose isn't better known and grown more. Thank you for the complements about my garden. It's coming along but of course it's still a work in progress. I think in another two years I'll be much closer to what I hope to achieve. Ingrid |

| That looks like paradise to me Ingrid! I know how excited you must be with the first bloom of Oneto Home Saffron. That's a new one to me but I do love yellow roses. BTW, a garden is supposed to always be "a work in progress" IMHO. |
