Anyone else with big beautiful roses to show us?

Fluffy pink roses are my favorite, and yours look wonderful. One can never grow too many pink roses!

Beautifully photographed roses, Ingrid, the colors and bloom shapes are divine.

Ingrid, they are lovely. I just planted Aloha and La France.

They’re all gorgeous Ingrid. Really do love the color of Bishop’s Castle, and the bloom shape is perfection!

Love your roses! I have Bishop's Castle which bloomed wonderfully about a month ago. Been hot here so rose are pretty much finished until fall.

I am trying to post a picture of Mme Isaac Periere which has finally bloomed in my garden, after 2-3 years in the ground. It was worth it; beautiful! But, I cannot post it, don't know why. Sooo frustrating.

Beautiful!

Does Boscobel count?

..I don't have many this year, still too early, but just opened are these from 'Mme. de la Roche-Lambert', which I'm liking a lot... apart from manky foliage, which is due to my very alkaline watering..

Here is my baby Triomph de Luxembourg from RPs. I had thought it looked like Maman Cochet, but today it looks different.

For some reason I’m craving a really rich and decadent cupcake topped with swirls of fluffy pink frosting....

Saute-YASSSSS!!!!

These pictures of your pink (and some veering toward purple and apricot, but who cares?) beauties are wonderful. I could kick myself now for having taken the buds off my baby Abraham Darby to help it to grow, when I could have had luscious blooms like these.

Please post more blooms if you have them, there can never be enough and certainly never too many.

Love these petal packed beauties!

Here is Oshun, I think my first blooms on this rose I received last year.

No pics as usual, but let me just name a few: 'Duc de Fitzjames'--mine is the pink one, and nothing can be pinker or fluffier--'Gros Choux d'Hollande', idem, and both of these are as tough and good-humored as you can ask roses to be, and as beautiful; 'Centifolia Variegata', since Sheila slipped in a pink-and-white rose (your 'Variegata di Bologna' looks a lot better than mine); and the glorious 'Jacques Cartier'/'Marchesa Boccella' and, pale pink, and an absolutely superb plant and bloom, 'Enfant de France'.

P.S. Modern, but how could I forget 'Mme. Caroline Testout, Cl.'? Huge pink blooms, old-fashioned HT style, and the plant can take just about anything. Highly recommended! I believe Jackie can second me here.

You named some beauties, Melissa. The last two are ones I really admire and would actually have a hope of growing here. Of course, more pink roses when I have a garden full of them?

Just beautiful! They're all wonderful but I vote Paul Neyron as being the most fluffy, sumptuous and over the top rose of all. It's always being extolled as having truly big and beautiful blooms, and this picture, more than any I've seen, captures that quality.

Wow I love all of these roses. It will be to difficult to choose a favorite as they all share the gorgeous pink plump cupcake blooms I love. I just need more land and a full time gardener (in my dreams).

Here's one of my favorite fluffy pink things, a mystery rose from Heirloom over 10 years ago. It was supposed to be Jacques Cartier but is actually an unidentified HP, I believe. Once blooming, completely disease free. Narrow and shooting upright but then arching and weeping under the weight of the blooms, like a willow tree. Deliciously fragrant! It hates hard pruning. (Don't we all? Heh, heh.) And look at those blooms!! They fade to a paler, silvery-blush. They're 100% Ingrid pink. ;-) The photos below were taken after a few days of heavy rain in our area. Not bad petal survival for a pale-colored rose! Just the slightest browning on the edges. Carol

Thank you, Ingrid, for starting this delightful thread and for sharing a string of photos of your pink beauties! Your La France is one of my absolute favorites. I have had a love affair with that cultivar for nearly a lifetime.

Desert, your Mdme. Isaac Pereire is also at the tip top of my all time fav pink list, but I wouldn't dare plant her in my blackspot-prone garden. I'm so glad you can grow her to perfection! If you could just send me her perfume....

Gorgeous photos everyone!

Whoever it may be, that is a beautiful rose. The bud in the first picture is one of the most beautiful ever, something Redoute or Fantin-Latour would have been proud to paint. I hope the blooming period is a long one for this lovely creature.
