Above shows a nice start to Julia's Love, one of my favorite doubles. My doubles all got off to a poor start this year, not doubling......... wah wah. I think it was the spring sickness and then the aphids that I tried killing with soapy water and burned some leaves on some of 'em. well anyway... it's blooming nice big blooms since this photo a few days ago.

Below shows a photo of a Double River Wye X Siloam Double Classic cross. it's pretty but very few buds and much the same as Double River Wye ; that one isn't blooming yet, ha, I can't wait. It's another favorite double and has lots of buds on it so far....

another cross Spotted Fever X Siloam Double Classic. nice full form, not enough buds, pretty though.

below shows a cross of Julia's Love X unknown (I would guess either Spotted fever or Slm Dbl Classic) .. I'm keeping this one because it's a nice round double and rich rouge-y color........
