OMG That is so pretty. My favorite color.

Gorgeous!

Beautiful how it glows when it is backlit like that. THank you for sharing, Jackie.

Wow! It's really spectacular! No wonder this rose has maintained a following! It gives me something to look forward to.

So amazingly gorgeous that I wish I had room for it.

FWIW, though . . . 'Reve d'Or' isn't a Tea Rose. It's a Noisette, and sometimes called a "Tea-Noisette" as opposed to the cluster-flowering original Noisettes.

So lovely! What an amazing garden you have.

It's always gorgeous at Jackie's house.

Makes me smile.

Your garden photos are gorgeous.

So pretty! Was this 1 of the original roses in your garden

Thanks Jeri - I forgot it is a tea noisette. Vaporvac - no, this one we planted ourselves about 10 years ago. More pics of it coming after I finish tidying up the house for the cleaners (my DH does not get this necessity!).

Stunning! They all look so happy together. Did you plan this mixture or just plant willy nilly and hope for the best

I never plan anything, except one rose by one - ie trying to plant a rose where we think it will be happy. The grouping with other roses is random - I am a collector, not a designer. However, as I think all of the roses I like are beautiful, they mostly get along with each other.

@jacqueline9CA how stunning I love it, looks like a beautiful painting

Soooo beautiful. I wish some of my roses had more of that airy quality, with random branches going off in one direction or another rather than the bushes looking like leafy globes/vases. Maybe it's my pruning style, or the fact that I don't grow very many climbers. But the effect in your yard is just enchanting!

I only prune them if something is dead, or to keep them out of the paths (or from falling off their supports).

Jackie - oh wow!!!! Incredible garden!!! I wish my yard could look like that!! :) :) Your Reve d'Or rose is fabulous!!! Swoon!!!

@slumgullion in southern OR climbers and ramblers make all the difference! They are the magic! They give you that English garden fairytale look. And throw in some super easy shrub roses like ducher, Marie pavie, belindas dream, sweet drift, and apricot drift in front of your hybrid teas to cover bottoms and rid you of that vases in a row look. Salvia is so pretty thrown in too. And whatever else you like, but the climbers and or ramblers are the magic key :)

HAHAHA Bridget I'm terrified of ramblers!! How to keep them from consuming the trees?? I value the trees too much to let them get strangled...

I do have some climbers - maybe a dozen - but most of them are what I'd call "mannerly" climbers and I have them trained onto gate arches.

I also have a couple of climbers (not ramblers) going up trees, but they haven't gotten far enough up into the canopies yet to really take off.

Ok I lied, looking out my window I realize I actually do have a Kew Rambler, planted at the base of an enormous sycamore tree. It's been in the ground for several years but so far has only gotten about 10' tall. I think the sycamore roots must be putting up a good fight for resources!

But I take your point - I think I need to get brave and start planting some climbers in random places, where they can toss their lanky canes out in all directions and create a more informal look. (Not that my garden is very formal...this would just be even more informal. My DH likes to practice what he calls "explosive gardening" so if I let the climbers explode in all directions like fireworks, I'll be joining in his pastime!)

Slumgullion - explosive gardening! So funny! :) :) I think that describes my gardening style too! :)
