April, thank you for sharing. Your roses are so beautiful. I am away from my garden for 2 weeks and I can't wait to come home. Looking at all the beautiful rose photos make me regret for taking this vacation during spring. I will never leave home in spring again!!

I love the way you arrange your rose. Just beautiful.

Beautiful as always April !! Paok is such a great rose . Pl is so vibrant !

Thanh - I am going away next week and have so many roses that haven't opened yet that look like they will that week! I wonder if my dog walker is crazy enough to send photos lol . I'm excited to see royal jubilee and Abraham Darby . All budded up ! Who knows maybe one will open by then. Hope you are enjoying your vacation!

Amazing roses!! No blemishes on them!! Do you spray for diseases and insects? Please let us know what you do to produce such perfect blooms. Both you and Judy have such beautiful gardens!! Thanks for any information you can give to a newbie. I've been growing roses for a year now, but I know I have lots to learn.

Yeah April. I just told my husband no more traveling from April through the end of June too.

Oooooh la la! Lots of lovely right there!

Youre too sweet Dianne!!

I told my hubby the same thing Thanh!!

Oh my my my so gorgeous! I love them both!!

PAOK is one of my favorites, I just planted a group of 5 in my backyard. I have 3 Pretty Lady in the front. I can't wait until they bloom! Your photos will have to hold me over.

I can even imagine how wonderful your garden is with all these gorgeous photos you post.

Lilyfinch, you gonna miss your garden more then you know Especially the place like your!!! I love my Abraham Darby. I wish I have Royal Jubilee. Please share more photos of your garden.

I always enjoy Hawaii but this time half of my heart was at home.

Diane you are so sweet. Thank you! Yes, I do spray usually once a week. Bayer disease control and right now orthene for insects. I try not to spray some of the ones I know the bees really love like pink gnome. They are allll over those! But I do have issues with some bs and thrips and all the other nuisances of gardening. I just don't post the imperfect ones :)

Ashley, thank you so much! You are going to have boatloads of blooms! Those were each off just one bush for me. I adore PAOK too and PL is really turning out to be amazing too. There are just sooo many pretty ones out there and I want them all! Lol!

Thanks Judy :)

So pretty!

Thanks for the info about spraying. Having trouble with thrips right now, so I need to spray more often than I have been.

Wow...that is a handful of beauties.

So very Lovely I really like POAK
