Some blooms from yesterday and today...

11 years ago

I took a lot of pics late yesterday and early this morning. Seil's pics really impressed me so I thought I would try out my cameras manual settings. Some of them came out quite well.

Julia's Rose - bud yesterday and this morning

Another Julia's Rose bloom - different stages, yesterday thru to this evening

Eddy Mitchell late yesterday and early this morning

Amber Queen

And just because she is so lovely ..

Little Artist has been really busy and is still pushing out beautiful blooms

    And here are the rest

    Heidi Klum

    Don't know what this one is - absolutely not Old Port as per the lable! Don't you just love it when that happens! Still pretty though...

    Oklahoma should open


    Mamy Blue - not quite focused, still struggling with the manual focus a bit but I like it in front of the Alchemilla

    Troika in different stages

    Fellowship

    Indian Summer

    A red nn Florist Rose which I grafted last year - red seem very difficult to photograph but this is quite close

    And in between all the photos, we found time to finish the edging on the new rose bed ...

    Still quite a bit of work to do. Digging over, adding compost and then comes the best part - the planting. Already have about ten roses waiting for a new home.

    Wow! Gorgeous roses and beautiful property you have! I've been lusting after INDIAN SUMMER for yrs. Hortico in Canada listed it back in the 90's, but they never seemed to be able to provide it.

    Wow! Those are some amazing photos of your beautiful roses! I've been hankering after Julia's Rose for a while! I love the stages of bloom you captured, so pretty! Your edging looks perfect as well! Did you use concrete with forms, or are they landscape bricks close together, it looks so neat and tidy, I LOVE it! I have one row of roses planted along a fence and still can't figure out what to do for edging.

    Beautiful roses that you captured with your camera.

    Wow!! Bevy of beauties!!! - especially Julia's Rose!!!

    What I can't get over is how beautiful your grass is!! Don't you get dandelions where you live? Our city is completely covered in dandelions - blech!! I'm waging my own non-chemical warfare with them.

    Thanks
    everyone!! If it wasn't for Seil, my pics would still be just point
    and click! Seil, your pictures just look so real! Thanks for the
    Inspiration!!

    Nummy,
    the lawn edging is done with concrete pavers that fit into each other. The nice
    thing about them is that you can do curves as well. The main reason for the
    edging is so that the bot can cut all the way to the edge. 'Henry' and his big
    brother have been doing our lawns since last year lol. And what a pleasure - no
    more grass cuttings and no more edges to do!!

    rosecanadian, LOTS
    AND LOTS of dandelions and other stuff. We live sort of in the country and
    the farmer next door has a field which he just leaves to grow
    wild. Quite pretty with all the wild flowers. It isn't so bad now
    that the lawn is established. Here you can see the field behind the irises.
