As usually, very pretty Masha! :) I like the insides of Basye's Purple Rose, looks a bit like all those macro shots of random plants that are so popular to hang on a wall nowadays or use as screensaver/wallpaper. :)

It is also interesting how your Jude the Obscure color differs from mine, my was way more orangy and wilted really badly in the heat.

Also, what is the difference between Graham Thomas and Golden Celebration? Blooms look rather similar?

Janet is really pretty too, she still looks a lot like teas, doesn't she? Probably would be a good tea-rose substitute for us living in more mild climates, where teas generally are tricky to grow.

Oh my gosh, these are wonderful pictures Masha!!!

My favorite is Basye's Purple Rose. I love the unusual color of the stamens in combination with the color of the petals. Very nice!

Janet looks amazing, as always I might say!

I am so happy that I got Purple's Pavement from you! One rose less to crave ;-)!

Thanks for posting these pics. It is so interesting to see what grows well for other people at this time of the year!

Your fotos are superb. I tried to pick a favorite, but they are all so lovely.

A wonderful show of many roses that I really like. Gorgeous photography, as usual. Lucky you have so many roses blooming in the summer.

Masha, you make me want Yves Piaget really bad. Is it always that pretty for you?

Really pretty, Masha. That cluster shot of Janet makes me think of whipped cream and peaches.

Thank you!

Elemire, I don't grow GT, but at the Heritage it is quite a bit bigger than GC. I have heard that repeat is not as good but I don't know myself. The blooms don't look at ruffled and sculpted as those of GC.

Christina, I am glad you are enjoying PP. I have to say that its foliage right not looks the best of nearly all my roses - no mite or salt damage. I love that emerald green. Also hips are beginning to ripen and turn orangey, very pretty.

Juliet, my YP took awhile to get going. It has bloomed really well this year (except for some balling in the spring). The foliage on mine is not so bad, but bloom necks are covered with mildew. It doesn't seem to affect them in any way, but is not particularly pretty either:-(.
