Lilac Rose, this looked like a smaller plant? Or is it just young?

I WANT A RUGROSA NOW. :D

Rugrosa Rubra

Mystery polyantha... anyone know what it is?

Is this Zepherine Drohin? People say it doesn't do well here... but this one seems to be doing well? Maybe Huntington has magical gardeners (they probably do.)

I WANT A RUGROSA TOO! You are such an enabler!

I like their leaves. I wonder how well they will do in my area.

Thanks for sharing your beautiful day!

Crestline Mulberry is so gorgeous! Their rugosas look very good, not much chlorosis at all. Thanks for posting those.

Aimee, what is the Red climbing rose that is in the picture just above where you typed "Royal Sunset"? Is that Red Eden? I hope mine looks that nice eventually if so. I always love this gardens because you always buy roses and have them in the ground, but then you can go to these locations and see them in full swing...or at least most of the time. It gets your hopes up for the same roses you have at home. I love the Enfant de France green budeye. I also like the red/white climbing combo. I've always enjoyed Red/White combinations, but rarely every see the colors together...must just be me. It's nice to see the 2 colors amongst each other.

Kitty, you should go to the Banning Mansion in Wilmington. The rose garden isn't much to see...yet. There is a core of volunteers working to help restore the Paul J. Howard Rose Garden, installed after Mr. Howard's death in 1966. Howard was a noted Los Angeles horticulturalist and landscaper as well as part of the Howard Rose Dynasty. The wistaria is in full flower and there are hundreds of feet of it on pergolas around the gardens. An enormous old truck is reported to date from the 1880s. It was quite pretty this afternoon. I didn't take a camera as I wasn't expecting to go visiting. I was asked down to plant roses! We did, and this was the end of the afternoon. Kim Here is a link that might be useful: Banning Mansion

This was difficult--I only have a fraction of the photos many of you have, and I just struggled to narrow it down to three. You see, my 15 year old granddaughter, Clare takes wonderful photos. All credit to her. Nana Here's Angel Face.

Beautiful pictures! I too want Crestline Mulberry but I don't think it's in commerce yet although I did see it in a rosarian's garden. I think they want to make sure that public gardens are supplied with it first.

Very lovely roses, thanks so much for showing us these aimee. I also love rugosas and had two for a while but they have no leaves in the winter and didn't like my hot summers, and for me don't rebloom like the tea roses, Austins or Bourbons. They are wonderful though when they're well grown in a climate they like.

aimeekitty, thanks for taking us on a Huntington Garden Rose tour. Like others I love the look of Crestline Mulberry. How much more romantic can it get?

Mayor of Casterbridge stands also out for me, I always fall for cup-shaped blooms...

I have never seen a pic of the White Grootendorst Rugosa. I like white roses very much and I think this is the most beautiful Rugosa that I have ever seen.

How tall was that Mayor of Casterbridge? I've seen it has medium sized blooms, but I rarely see mature specimens of the Mayor. The pink climber is most definitely Zepherine Drouhin.

jeffcat - Mayor of Casterbridge was quite tall. It was in the middle of the bed with shorter roses in front of it. It could have been 6 -7 feet tall or more. (I'm 6 feet tall) if I remember correctly. I remember it being large.

Great photos.
Are you sure the mystery rose is a polyantha? Hard to judge the scale of the plant, but wonder if it could be Bouquet Parfait, a Louis Lens hybrid musk?

I grew Zephirine in So Cal at the coast near Marina Del Rey. It did not do well. I'm now growing it near Sacramento and it does quite well. It needs winter chill. If you're in the San Gabriel Valley then you may be able to grow it with success.

Janelle, thanks so much...! We only get to about 30-36 here, I'm in the Antelope/Santa Clarita Valley area not San Gabriel (but that's where these photos were taken) so I'm guessing Zephirine wouldn't do as well for me.

with the mystery rose, no, I'm not sure it's a polyantha. Some of the roses around it were, so I guessed. Your link to Bouquet Parfait looks a lot like it! That could be! Regardless BP looks like a gorgeous rose! I'll have to do some research on it and see if it would do well for me! The mystery rose they had at the front of a rose bed, so I was hoping to find a floriforous shorter rose to go in the front of some of my beds.
