Ok... on with some more....

8 years ago

I'm beginning to get a little caught up with the photos. I think this is the best yr I've ever had. Soooo many blooms and roses that haven't bloomed in yrs too.. I'm lovin' it!

Here's some from (I think) yesterday:

ACROPOLIS - surrounded by the dreaded Centranthus Ruber...

BLACKBERRY NIP

BROCELIANDE

DARK DESIRE

EVELYN - looking a little pale

LADY X

MARILYN MONROE

PEACH SILK CL

PEGASUS - first bloom in I cant tell you when!

PUMPKIN PATCH

    What can I say that I haven't said before. Roses look amazing and the blooms are so beautiful. The color on that Pumpkin Patch is incredible and I don't tend to like orange roses but that one is beautiful. Love the OP seedling as well as the Vampire rose. Do you have the Dave Bang rose Black Cherry Ice Cream?

      RUSTY

      SERENDIPITY

      SIXTEEN CANDLES

      SMOOTH LADY

      SOS CHILDREN'S ROSE

      STEPHEN RULO

      SUNBURST

      SURREAL

      This is one of Dave Bang's roses which he labeled either VAMPIRE RETURNS or VAMPIRE'S RETURN (I can't remember which it is anymore and lost his label!)

      And this is my OP seedling of COUNTRY LADY. It's looking very promising. I need to come up with a name....

      ACROPOLIS is lovely, as are the others. I agree with 'mustbenuts' about PUMPKIN PATCH, but then I love orange roses. I think of wine when I see BLACKBERRY NIP. 16 candles has me singing the song ....,

      I'm lovin' that PUMPKIN PATCH myself. It usually is more orange. I love the more dusty shade this time around.

      Mustbnuts, no, I don't think Dave had any of his BLACK CHERRY ICE CREAM available when he sent me what he did.

      Ingrida, that's funny... I end up singing that song every time I am out there and see SIXTEEN CANDLES blooming. Kinda hard not to when you just "say" it in passing...

      Surreal is stunning!!! What an amazing color and shape!! The Vampire rose has such a unique color! Oh wow!! I love the color on your Dark Desire! I can't wait for mine to bloom...maybe it will be lovely too this year. I had ordered Broceliande from Hortico a few years ago...but received a different rose instead. I sure wish I would have gotten Broceliande....yours is gorgeous!!! Is the fragrance incredible?

      Carol, I don't notice any fragrance on BROCELIANDE. Not many of my roses are very "smelly" right now. The only one I have noticed lately is HACIENDA aka FIREFIGHTER. It's been pretty yummy! Oh, and FYI, I call it HACIENDA, because that's it's original name. I got my first plant from Edmunds way back in the 90s, a few yrs before it was intro'd as FIREFIGHTER. I had ordered something else, but they accidentally sent me one labeled "HACIENDA." I called them and they were shocked to hear I had gotten it. They told me it was going to be used in a "heroes" series of roses, but they didn't tell me the new name. Found it out later, once it got introduced by them.

      Beth - that's pretty neat that you had the skinny on that rose before it was FF. I can't wait to smell mine. Last year it was terrible..didn't have one bloom (first year)...was about 6 inches high. I repotted it in a 5:1:1 mixture, and it has a few buds!! Yay!
