It is a rainy day today and I had a chance to organize my photos a little. Here they are.

Lovely as always, Masha. I love the garland of Elie Bauvilain and the tree peony, so much. Your front garden corner is a rich array of roses. I thank you, Masha. Always a pleasure. Tres magnifique!

Once again, great photography, Masha!

Your blooms are so quintessential old world. Love them all!

I tend to favor the pink roses more so your Felicite Parmentier was a pleasure to view.

I'm going to add her to my garden. Can a person have too many pinks?

Thank you all very much! Jerome- Larmarque has always been very top favorite rose. Like Audrey said it has such nice clean blooms and the smell is a wonderful sweet citrus scent. I also just love the green apple color of the leaves.Very well behaved climber. Krista- Duchess de Brabant has grown very quickly for me. Always covered in blooms. Denise- Thank you for the complement...I too just love that birdfeeder, got it at our Flowertown Festival 2 years ago but I wish I spent more and got the larger birdhouse instead as now that vendor hasn't been there since...got to remember to go with your gut and just buy it when you see it. Audrey- I have Ducher too but I got lucky as she was sent by accident so they told me to keep her and I love her. Very clean, nice rounded shape, and a citrus scent similar to Lamarque. I love white roses but they are hard to get full bush shots as the white seems no matter the time of day is bright and it just doesn't show up very well. Here is mine...

The top rose looks like Spectra. I grow it in a well protected area. Tried to grow it in the open and I could not overwinter it here in Iowa in a regular rose bed. I love Spectra, which it blooms in so many different colors, is scented, and has excellent form.

Thanks again to everyone for your very nice and encouraging comments. Always makes me want to improve as a gardener! hoovb. If I have enabled Y O U to a rose, I guess that would make me a Rosarian ;-)! I have to admit you are one of my garden idols! Carol, for some reasons Iceberg roses simply love Southern California and all the rain that we had this year has just let them explode into the spring flush. Beth, I am glad that you like my photos. As for the scrub jays, I don't recall seeing them the first two years that we have been here, but this winter suddenly they showed up at the feeder. Masha, I am always happy if someone likes my "White Bed". I guess there are people, who think it is just plain boring or too monotone, but I like to experiment with the nuances of white and find it very exciting! Krista, thank you so much for your wonderful compliment, that is rather flattering! I didn't know that your Mme. Ernest Calvat is also so young. It might be interesting to compare how our roses are doing in the very different climates that we are gardening in. Serena, it is always nice to have bird guests in the garden, isn't it? You have a very eloquent way to use words "Even Lady Guadalupe shows sheer elegance the way you portrayed her", thanks for saying that! Florence, it gives me joy that you like my garden! Christina

Well ...... it's not growing as much as it oughtta' ;-) And not only that -- new plants keep appearing in the yard of one who is cutting back on plants .... just don't understand how things like that happen. Like how I was a Schumachers the other day and bought a tropical orchid tree, but for $16 and in a 7 gal pot how is one to resist? And not only that -- now it's fixin' to bloom -- out of season! Jim, you probably have one, aren't they supposed to bloom in the spring? (p.s. thanks Omar and all :-)

Awesome thats all I can say. And we will somehow not be offended by Girona sneaking in there, not even a little.

These are some beautiful pictures of so awesome roses. Oh, I love your companion plants also. I'd be hard pressed to pick a favorite but knowing Gruss an Aachen like I do it has to be right up there. It's so nice to see rose foliage without black spots, something that doesn't happen here.

I'm running out of superlatives when it comes to the roses you show us, Masha, so I will only say that I never get tired of looking at them. The peony is gorgeous. If they bloomed longer I would consider many of them to be the equals of roses. I really like the companion plants with the roses. You have a lovely garden.

Thank you, everybody, for your wonderful comments!

Oldblush, I love my Gruss too even though it is virused. It shows mild patterns on some leaves in spring, but still blooms quite well. Mine is a grafted Star (?) plant. I have room next to it for a small rose and am trying to figure out what color would work with it and having lots of trouble...

Ingrid, I understand how you feel about peonies. Herbaceous peonies won't grow here, and tree peonies take forever to reach any size. Mine is still very very little, and my husband keeps wanting to dig it up for taking valuable garden space. And yes, you are right, the bloom period is not long at all:-(.

Great shots, lovely garden...
