A couple of my roses have finally opened--

Morden blush:

William Baffin

Things are really behind--lots of buds elsewhere, but nothing else has bloomed just yet!

My roses have started blooming nicely.
A couple Bucks.

I have way too many to post...so I'll send along a link to my photobucket.

Finally I have roses again. Pics after a Fourth of july rain.

Miss All American Beauty- definitely a beauty and the prettiest of my roses

My unknown but reliable reblooming rose (unknown probably hansa bush falling apart in the background)

My little mini rose I put in the ground one year just because- 3 years ago- I was sure it would die, but it has a better chance outside than in!

Nice roses all! Here are some of mine:

Fragrant Cloud:

Celestial

Featuring Trichiotinus assimilis

Madame Plantier - this is my favourite rose. It has done so well this year and is covered in over 50 buds.

Its buds are pink, they are so beautiful with the white flowers.

This is what greeted me when i came home from the lake yesterday - Hansa in full bloom:

Marie Bugnet:

Ms. Sunrise:

Blanc Double de Coubert:

More...

Emily Carr. The shrub is going nuts this year. The flowers are very velvelty, sorta like Cuthbert Grant.

Bonica for the next two. This rose is very floriferous. There are well over 100 buds.

Lambert Closse. Best show ever for it.

Topaz Jewel. The blooms are very big this year.

Morden Sunrise. Absolutely stunning. The flowers are very fragrant for about one day.

Adelaide Hoodless. Very, very pretty. Also extremely floriferous.

And a Therese Bugnet at the Calgary Stampede. There are many, many rose shrubs planted throughout the grounds now.

Sorry for the dark pictures, I couldn't take pics until 9 at night.

Gil, I need a Madame Plantier. It is on my next year list.

Shelley who is loving her yard now.

I always look forward to seeing Golden Unicorn, nice photo of it Shelley :)

Everyones roses are gorgeous! I still want Golden Unicorn more than ever now.
Shazam...that Emily Carr is just a rose on steroids! LOLS I can't get over how vigorous & healthy she is and what a blooming machine...I get so many people asking me about her.
Debbie

You're telling me! I can't believe how tall it's getting. And this is only its second year!

Hi everyone,

What a great show of roses! It is so helpful to see them all in real gardens. Do any of you have pics of the entire bushes?

Mine at the moment have slowed down but will be blooming again in a few weeks. SO nothing new to show you.

Wasagaming I have been looking at for a few years and yours are all so pretty. In researching some report them to be reblooming while others insist they are once bloomingÂ.what are your experiences with them, and how large to they actually get in your gardens.

Thanks,

Karyn

Bush shot of Lambert Closse. About 1.5 feet high:

Bush shot of Emily Carr. The tallest cane is over 3 feet high, it seems:

Bush shot of George Vancouver. The last of the first set of blooms just fell off. There are at least 34 buds on it right now. This bush is 1.5 feet high and two feet wide:

My other George Vancouver:

Morden Fireglow:

Prairie Dawn, I think. It is currently on its second set of blooms. Some of these blooms are actually larger than the first set. Also, some are flattening instead of staying cupped.

Bonica on its 94rd rebloom of the season:
