Yum! I think I can smell them Henri! Those blooms on John Hopper are huge!

OH WOW!!!!

You never fail Henri!!! Your John Hopper blooms are the most scrumptious roses I've ever seen. If I had that in my yard - I'd never leave the backyard - rain, dark, bugs - wouldn't matter LOL

That's a fantastic picture of Abe too!!! You sure know how to do big huge blooms.

Which ones smell the best?

Sigh - such beauty.

John Hopper knocks my socks off!

Thank you all !
Carol , ain't that funny - John Hopper also doesn't care about rain and bugs :) We get a lot of rain at this time of year , and may roses suffer badly , but not this one . Also , those damn bugs are chewing on most of my roses this year , again , not this one ...
Among these ones , my vote for the strongest scent would go to Abe Darby , but for the most beautiful one - John Hopper , no doubt about it . Unique , exquisite and strong fragrance .

Very beautiful photos of lovely roses. John Hopper is just amazing. I have to look that one up to find out more about it.

Thanks for posting!

Wow. Very impressive roses! Thanks for showing them to us.

Sounds like John Hopper needs to be in a lot more gardens than it is!! It looks too beautiful to be real. AND it has a good frangrance. Impressive.
