WHITE MASTERPIECE

and...

WORK OF ART mini

WOW...that's a lot of W's Beth! I love all the "whites". WANGUAFONG has especially pretty striping and coloring...not familiar with that one, but going to look it up momentarily!!! Worthwhile sure earned it's name...such a beautiful form and color!

Only three for me:

Wild Blue Yonder

White Licorice (a favorite of mine)

We Salute You (not a good rose for me...I've given it years to find happiness to no avail, so it will be removed this spring)

I have a couple here, but first let me say, Beth, how much I admire Walking on Sunshine and WWII Memorial--just lovely!

And Pat, those pics of Wild Blue Yonder and Wild Licorice are gorgeous!

Here's mine.

Well Being--I love this one, with its reddish buds, but it is in too much shade now. I'll be moving it this spring to a sunnier spot. Everyone wish me well on it cuz I really like it and don't want to lose it.

Here's another view of it:

William Shakespeare--I'm cheating a bit on this one since it didn't survive last winter's brutal cold, but I love it anyway, and wish I had a big enough spot left to plant a new one. It unfortunately was too close to Well-being--they were both beginning to get too much shade.

Kate,

Love your Well Being...just gorgeous! I put that one on my wish list last year after reading somewhere about its wonderful fragrance, but haven't heard much about it since, so it moved down the list a bit...sounds like I should move it right back up. So glad to see your pictures and hear that it's a good one for you! Will definitely keep my fingers & toes crossed that yours flourishes in its new spot.

Those are all lovely! Wild Blue Wonder looks amazing. Pat, I have ordered White Licorice, because I love yours so much. Love the World Peace and Wildfire too.

pat_bama, I love your Wild Blue Yonder! For me it became a very leggy shrub, fully of big, gawky canes and not too many blooms. Yours is so gorgeous.

Loving Wedding Song and White Masterpiece, Beth!

Pat, White licorice is yummy!

Kate, very unusual how those red buds turn out to be yellow blooms.

Just a couple for me.

Wild Plum

And Winter Sunset

I wish we had "sniff-a-vision". I would love to put my nose in all of these lovely blooms and probably get stung by a bee....

WILDFIRE

WELCOME HOME

Oh, Inga, I did that once, lol!

What wonderful photos! I'm sad that we're almost done with the alphabet, but happy because it means that spring is that much closer! Wild Blue Yonder hasn't been great for me. Like Inga, mine has been leggy and stingy with flowers. I moved it to a sunnier spot last year and it gave me all of one paltry 'flush', but maybe this year will be better. Let's just say it's on probation. :)

Wild Blue Yonder

White Gold

Westerland

Ooooh they're all beautiful! I can't wait to get out and redo my yard now that the septic is almost done (they're covering up the leach lines and getting ready to pump and then collapse the old tank!!). I am going to move a whole bunch of roses that have been in mostly shade for yrs and hopefully I will finally get to see WELL BEING do it's thing once it gets out of there!! Nice to see yours Kate!

These are more of what I shot during last spring's jaunt to San Jose and didn't post. Not the best pics (they were posted) but may give an overall feel of the bloom. I think you can click on them to see the full size picture. A feature I didn't know Houzz supported.

Walking On Sunshine - Zary'10, lemony color

Wild Blue Yonder - Carruth AARS winner

Windermere - Austin'06, seriously considering this one but it's a vertical sky reacher here. Must be a sight in full bloom.

I think I have to try Wild Blue Yonder. Those are some AMAZING pictures of it!!

I'm really loving WonderStripe!!!!!! Walking on Sunshine is amazing for covering the bush with roses. So bright and sunny!
