The foliage of Betty Bland four days ago, the colours are even better today but it's too windy to go outside. I'm sorry the photo isn't good.

Lovely fall color! Not many of my roses will change color. Well, except to have black spots!

RE: Fall colours

We don't enjoy much fall color here, and roses supply some of the best of it. R. hugonis is very good, and some of the would-be-evergreen roses turn a near-black polished color that's decidedly handsome. I bet the Rugosas do well for you, and some of them are brilliant in autumn. We can't grow them.

The rugosa Moje Hammarberg in front of the spinosissima Double White is probably the best fall color combo in my garden now.

That is truly lovely, Marianne. The second picture is so dramatic. This is one of the beauties of a four-season climate, although I'm afraid my thin California blood wouldn't be able to handle the subsequent winter freezing temps.
