This is one of my favorite photos of the flush so far. Of course, now I have cut these back and they are spotting. But OH the romance! The beauty! The swoon......

A visual dream and the aroma must be intoxicating! Nothing quite has that rich old roses and raspberries(?) scent of MIP except MIP. Carol

Poorbutroserich,

A lovely photo of a very refined rose that combines so many qualities: bloom form, color, and scent. Wow. Do I see a redder rose blooming behind MIP in the photo? Another bourbon perhaps?

Also, is your growing on its own roots?

Thanks,

Larry

Thanks you all. I wish it would stay like that year around...but then I would likely take it for granted. In my opinion the spring flush should be called the spring "overwhelm". WOW. I'd never experienced that before.
Larry: I believe that is Alfred Colomb blooming behind MIP but I can't find the tag. I know Svr. du President Lincoln is in there....and one more. There is a crimson and then more of a purple. I think the moss Capitaine John Ingram is in there....but I didn't see much moss...
I need to get out my order form. I remember I ordered them all at the same time from RVR. And they are on their own roots. This time last year they were bands!

Mme Isaac Pereire is one of my favorites, I love the bloom color!
