So gorgeous, Kentucky! I love it!

Sara-Ann, thank you. I wish it wasn't so winter tender.

That really is a beautiful color combination and a bud shape which accomodates. It must b lovely watching it unfold.

Wow! I've gotta look this one up.

I did look it up - HMF search is always open - it changes depending on the weather.

Lovely!

Very pretty. The last two winters has been rough on a lot of my plants. So irritating. Judy

Gorgeous! I got one last yr but it's been really slow to do anything. Can't wait for it to look like that!!

Maybe this is what my mystery rose is?! Been searching for a name..

Great looking bloom kentucky_rose! I really like the coloring!

Oh my!!!! That is utterly beautiful!!

I wouldn't be able to leave that rose if it were in my yard. Stunning!

Carol

Oh WOW!!!!!!! So many absolutely BEAUTIFUL roses - can we have some more pics of that, different angle? Are they in a vase?

Sharlene

Oh my!!

So many blooms!! Such gorgeous blooms!!

Wonderful!

Carol

Sharlene, the roses are in containers, but I did take more shots. Later I did make a mini arrangement. Hope you all enjoy.

Just gorgeous!! Looks like what you see at a florist!

I hardly ever cut for the vase and never so many - only when they forecast a bad storm or at the end of the season.

I have never had bouquets like that from my garden. Maybe I should try doing it. I love keeping the flowers on the bush for some reason. But your bouquets are stellar!!!!!!!! Every flower is gorgeous, and together it's a froth of perfection. I mean really!!!!! :)

Carol

Thanks, Carol. Your temps are probably much cooler and they last longer than mine would on the bush. You have great looking roses!

Thanks Kentucky Rose - you're probably right - they last way longer on the bush than in the house. I never thought of it that way. But that's why I don't cut them.

Ninkasi - that's lovely - I love the deep edges. Mmmmmm.

Carol

Just beautiful Kentucky! But Ladies!!! I don't see how you REFRAIN from cutting! I love love having them inside to enjoy too! I go on a cutting spree everyday. Haha. I try to plant lots of pots and have some roses I don't want to cut so I'll always have color in the yard. It's a crazy beautiful obsession :)))

April, I love your phrase, "cutting spree."

Ninkasi, beautiful bloom! Kentucky, love seeing all your gorgeous blooms. Your roses always look perfect to me.

April - :) - I'm totally the opposite. :) I love, love, love seeing them in the natural light of the outdoors. I love how the nuances are showcased by the sun. The only time I cut roses, is if we're going to have snow or if rain has made the flowers bend down.

Beautiful obsession is right on. Carol :)

This is SOOOOOO the definition of rose porn, lol. I'm in love with your shots of your fantastic rose bouquets! Your Pacific Celebration reminds me of California Dreamin'.

Kublakan,

California Dreamin' is beautiful!

Gorgeous gorgeous bouquets Kentucky Rose!! Love all the roses! I don't bring them in my house, partly because I prefer to enjoy them out in the garden, and partly because my cat Lola looooves to eat them!!

I don't know how I missed your post. Wow, your roses look amazing and the amount of roses that you can "harvest" is incredible. Hope someday, I can cut buckets of beautiful roses like yours.
