Beautiful roses and pretty iris!

Crocus Rose looks even prettier than your last photo, if possible.

Crocus rose is one of my Favorite Austins and this year.. dont know why its scent is knock your socks of deep TEA..

buts its variable, not all of them will do that and I think a reason this isnt on everyone list. If it had a better scent quality it would definitely be a must have Austin...

But as it is, its still a great one for northern range, as its a little hardier than his typical. Last year I only had tip damage, this year I had to cut it back to half.. but still pretty good hardiness rating.

I really loved your pictures. I have told myself I won't buy any more roses this year but your two Austins may change my mind. I was going to take some pictures of my most beautiful rose right now (Austin's Carding Mill) but I think my daughter has taken my camera to Baltimore with her. Anyway, thanks for sharing your garden.
