Season starting

9 years ago

Rose season is slowly starting here in
Sweden. I'm sharing a few of my first blooms from my container roses:


Boscobel

Perhaps my favourite Austin with
excellent fragrance. Only wish it was a bit more resistant to powdery
mildew.


St Ethelburga

Another one with great fragrance and
unfortunately also another one with unsatisfactory mildew resistance
(powdery mildew is a major issue for me this year). Flowers blow
really fast but the rose makes up for it by producing a lot of them.


Rosette Delizy

This tea really isn't a rose for my
climate but it's in it's fourth season in a pot. The flowers usually
ball so it's a rare treat for me to find a flower opening like this.
Subtle but lovely fruity fragrance.


Notre Dame du Rosaire

Fourth season for this french Guillot
rose as well, but I hade to re-pot it after last season when it was
sulking badly. Seems to have done the trick and it's now producing
again. Citrus fragrance.


Brocéliande

This is the only flower on my plant
now. Needs re-potting.


Prix P.J. Redouté

I've been uncertain of it's identity
since I got it last spring and I still am. Nice fragrance but not
very strong. This one has excellent mildew resistance.


Diablesse de Mers

A very colourful rose, especially at
bud stage but another one with very short-lived flowers. Great mildew resistance.

    A few more have opened... I wish I had some nice bush shots to show but my container roses aren't very attractive plants this year with only a few flowers on each bush and lots of mildew, so close-ups only. Still, I'm happy with the ones I get!


    Centenaire de l'Haÿ-les-roses

    I like the variable colour of this rose, ranging from purple red-golden yellow to soft lavender. Inconsistent fragrance, sometimes strong and sometimes undetectable. Susceptible to powdery mildew.


    Lamartine à Tresserve

    First flower from a cutting and quite different from the flowers of the multiflora mother plant last year, which had no orange shading in the centre at all and no fragrance. This flower has very nice fragrance.


    Myriam (aka Amazing Grace)

    Hybrid tea with large, super fragrant flowers. Healthy in full ground but mildews in a pot.


    Rosomane Janon

    This is a good rose with exciting, glowing colours and nice banana fragrance. Immune to powdery mildew.


    Belle de Segosa

    Very disease resistant. Very nice fragrance.


    Pretty Kiss


    I don't grow many singles, but I like the colours of this one.
