Gorgeous. I think I have asked this before...what camera do you use, I feel like the roses are within arms reach. Beautiful photography

Is the pink KpV highly resistant to balling as is the original?

Have you talked to a vendor about propagating it? (I missed any previous conversation about this gorgeous rose.)

Love your photos, as usual.

Thank you! Any lens recommendations pls?

RE: Whats Cookin

I'm terrible about lenses I use the same 70 300 with stabilizer for everything!
It is so much like SDLM I don't think it would make any difference to propagate it.
I got a Chimera this year also part pink part white that usually happens in the fall for some reason!

SDLM


has about 40 blooms.
Kronprincessin is just about 5 ft tall and had about 30 blooms

madam Wagram continues to be disappointing after 5 years I have only ever gotten 3 blooms in a Spring Flush

Pat Austin & Capt Dyel de Graville The Spring Blooms always nod the 2nd flush they usually remain upright

I have one other sport of SDLM which is SDLM Rouge and it has struggled for 3 years now & is still only about 1 foot tall & I cut the bud off it hoping for more growth!

Joe, you're trying to make me cry, aren't you? After seeing your paradise of gorgeous roses I can't even bear to go outside to look at my desiccated landscape. The second picture is dreamy but every single rose looks superb. It must be the rain, but I can't even see a single yellow leaf. I have a hard time processing that. If you could see my roses you'd understand.
