Beth, what's the deal?:) Are we on the same planet never mind the same state? Less than two hours away from one another? Ha! Your roses are just doing great still, wow! I'm happy your season has extended so long, that's really fun. Good for you. Aren't you getting any of the cold nights that we are having? This morning it was 24 degrees. The cats were all shamelessly huddled around the woodstove.

La Jolla is amazing. I love that. Also I really like Pennies from Heaven. How big does it get for you? Leslie (lesdvs) grows that in the greater Fresno area and I love those cheerful little flowers.

Thanks for sharing your late fall lovelies with us.

Kate

Lots of lovely blooms and pics, thanks for sharing.

So not fair in so many ways!! lol!! We have had ridiculously cold, cold weather for about 6 weeks now. Such a bummer. Your roses are so pretty. I was curious about Pennies From Heaven. How would you decribe the color? Would love to see a bush shot. Thanks for sharing all your beauties, Judy

If Beth will forgive a little hijacking Leslie has a good picture of the plant over on HMF if you haven't seen that one Judy. I just love the color of Pennies from Heaven.

Kate

What a delight surprise ! It is cold here in the northeast so it is nice to come to the Forum and enjoy your roses.

Florence

Wow Beth. They are all gorgeous again as usual.I really like that Peppermint Twist.Love them stripes.

Jean

Beth,

Thank you again for making my day! I grow Scentimental and part of the bush has reverted into Peppermint Twist. I really like the color's of the blooms for Peppermint Twist. It is a true red, not a washed out pink.

I still have many roses pumping out blooms and stretching for the waning sunshine.
Will you be buying any new bareroot roses this season?

Oh.... are you making bouquets ?? I've always liked Bill Warriner and never bought him , like the form on Jade and like your painter and Pep Twist.

Hey Kate! I dunno what's up with the roses blooming so well so long. We definitely get the cold nights. In fact today it's been pretty cold. The air feels icy. But the roses keep on going. My PENNIES FROM HEAVEN has begun to sprawl all over. I didn't realize when I planted it that it's a climber. So... it's going all over the place. Probably about 4ft.

Thanks Krista, Florence & Jean!

Judy, I dunno what exactly to call PFH. Like maybe a dusty-grey-mauve-on-rust? That photo isn't really all that accurate. It's a hard one to get a good reality shot of.

Daun, thank you. And oh yes... I DO have some bareroots still to come. Most of them have already arrived tho. Got 'em from Pickering & Palatine, and some of my Hortico's. And lots of bands fron Vintage. More to come from Regan's & Edmund's and even Witherspoon this yr.

Nope SuzyQ! No bouquets. Haven't had time. There's only a couple days a week where I have anytime at all to do anything outside with any daylight. I'm lucky to get out and take pictures. Then I have to run to work (or the shop). Don't know when I'll ever have time to deahead and clean up the pine needles. Oh well, guess I'll have to wait til after the holidays...
