    Great looking roses Beth! May I ask? How many roses do you grow? You sure seem to have zillions of them... :-)

  • 10 years ago

    Well Jim, according to HMF I currently have 1737 listed roses. That doesn't count the new ones on the way, duplicates and unknowns, or ones they still don't have on the website. It's awful the obsession...

  • 10 years ago

    I don't know how you do it, Beth, my 32-33 roses are plenty to keep me busy, I can't imagine being surrounded by all those gorgeous blooms, thank you for all the beautiful portraits over the years.

    Beautiful roses Beth! Love the Guy Savoy--I am such a sucker for a striped rose. Love the Gray Pearl as well. Interesting color.

  • 10 years ago

    Gobs of beauties as usual, Beth. Your Grande Amore is a perfect red. Love all the Golden roses too and Gail is especially nice. Mossy, your Grand Prize is lovely.

    My two G roses are

    Beth you're nuts! In the best way, of course! And really, aren't we all?

    Grey Pearl and Gypsy Lantern are my favs from this list... but it's just choosing awesome from amazing. They're all gorgeous. Sorry to hear about Gitte - love that soft apricot colour!

    Mossy, what a lovely photo of Grand Prize! You should have included that one in the Calendar thread! :)

    I have only one G - Gentle Hermione. It was a mislabel sent from DA in Texas; I had ordered Darcy Bussell. Happily, I quite like it, and DA was not only able to identify it for me right away, but will be sending Darcy Bussell at no charge this coming spring. Win-win!

    By the way, Beth, that first photo - of Gail - is magnificent!

    Beautiful roses Beth! So glad the post worked and you don't have to give up champagne. Lol. Judy

    Pat, the bush shots of George Burns are gorgeous. I've wondered how some of the stripes would look in the garden--I feared they would be too "busy" looking or out of harmony with the other roses, but your GB has convinced me that they add a wonderfully effective decorative effect! I also like the bush shot of Grussen Aachen--another one I was having trouble visualizing in a garden. I love its subtleties.

    Mossy, love your "frilly" Grand Prize.

    Beth--so many lovely yellows under "G"--yellows are my favorite rose color. That shot of Garden Party was interesting, with the play of light and shadow across that shapely form.

    Grand Amore is looking grand--thanks Beth and Sara.

    Why didn't I take a photo of my Ghislaine de Feligonde? She just put out a few blooms and will probably do much better next season, but you'd think I could have grabbed a quick shot--just so I could brag about her, wouldn't you!

    Well, here's Green Ice--but not a very good picture of how she sprawls and the subtle green and even peachish shadings she can get sometimes.

    Beautiful roses everyone, Gentle Hermione is lovely redwolfdoc. Pat, love your Gruss an Aachen and Gina L. Gypsy Carnival is lovely, Kate. Sharlene, Gloria Dei is one of my favorites under any name, love the uniquely beautiful coloring of Goldelse and Golden Monica is very nice. I have especially enjoyed your posts during the 2015 season.

  • 10 years ago

    Thanks Sara! I too have enjoyed the 2015 season with you and all the other GW members!!!

    Oh, Seil, those are some of your prettiest photos! Especially the first three!

    Wonderful photos Seil. It's that sharp relief from the background you capture that I admire so much!

    beautiful roses everyone!

    In Germany, Kordes 'Cream Veranda' is known as 'Garden of Roses', an apt name I think because it is constantly in bloom!

  • 10 years ago

    Fantastic looking roses everyone! :-)

  • 10 years ago

    Love seeing your Cream Veranda, Ninkasi. It's very pretty. I got 2 one gallon size on clearance from J and P in October. I think I paid about $10 for each. I couldn't just get one at that price! I haven't seen too many pictures of Cream Veranda yet, so I really enjoy seeing yours. Love that soft color. I plan to keep mine in large hanging pots. I hope they will do well that way. I'm very happy to know that yours is constantly in bloom. Can't wait to see mine do the same. Do you find that they make good cut flowers? Lovely roses everyone! Lisa

  • 10 years ago

    Hi Lisa,

    The blooms last several days in a vase, but the challenging part is the short stems. It is a vigorous but compact bush, and I rarely want to cut that much off. I generally display them in little yogurt pots or place setting vases. I hope it does well for you, I'm sure it will!
