In a row, Mr Lincoln, Scentimental and White Lighnin'

Next to each other, Just Joey and Hot Cocoa.

I like La Reine and Evelyn next to each other, the apricot and the dark pink together.

KATHWHIT, Just Joey and Hot Cocoa together! What a fantastic
sight that must be!

KRISTA4, La Reine and Evelyn, how beautiful your pic of
the contrast is, of these two roses. The scents around that
part of your garden, must be great.

My favorite spot in the garden is where I have two Pat Austins alternated with three Simply Marvelous. I love the color difference and as you walk through my back gate, you can smell that corner! MMMM, heaven.

Golden Celebration and Rouge Royale looks so good together, and my oh my..the fragrance oozing from those two is just magical.

Marilyn Monroe and Hot Cocoa look nice together.
Ebb Tide is right near Just Joey--if only they will bloom together.
Double Delight and Crimson Bouquet are nice together.

Apricot Silk and Mons Tillier

Ehann, two Pat Austin's and some lavender must look
really great. And those two have fruity scents, so I'm
sure it also smells great.

MSJAM2, Golden Celebration and Rouge Royale, must look
very rich. I'm sure it's a dramatic combo.

Kathy, I have always liked your creative combo of
Marilyn and Hot Cocoa. Ebb Tide must bring Just
Joey's color to life. Very nice!

Daun, thank's for the pic of Apricot Silk by Mons Tillier.
Beautiful colors on Apricot Silk.

Those all sound just wonderful!

In a side garden, we have Disneyland, Tuscan Sun, Distant Drums, Hot Cocoa and Bella 'Roma all together, with dramatic daylilies (like Malasian Monarch and Big Smile and others) interspersed. And yellow and orange kniphofia is mixed in there too. Wish I had a picture. The oranges, russets, mauves and yellows all interact very well!

I like the topic, Devon. I'll have to keep an eye on it, still a few spots left in my rose garden. (I'm not sure how you keep the lavender happy next to moisture lovers like roses?) Brandy

Heritage & Blythe Spirit have been making a pleasing combo in my garden this year. Their pink & yellow hues are very much like watercolors. I wasn't really thinking of it when I transplanted them next to one another but they work together pleasingly. I wouldn't have thought to put them together intentionly for that effect.

one-two punch?

William lobbed me and tresor de thorigny ensnared me like a boa constrictor.

Charles Lefèbvre and Love

Ebb Tide tree rose behind a now mature Iceberg. The blooms are stunning together.

Wish I had a picture but ruffly white Marie Pavie and simple red Dusky Maiden make a charming pair.

I planted 3 each of Moondance and Frankly Scarlet. White and red. Moondance is a creamy white with a yellowish center and Frankly Scarlet is a medium red which turns almost flourescent with time.

Buford stole my idea. I have Moondance and Homerun next to each other. Both are always in bloom so I always have red and white together. These are first year plantings, so should become even more striking as they mature.

Its my own favorite Graham Thomas and Day breaker

Oooh, that's nice Neicey!

PHYLRAE, I'll bet all those warm colors stand out, in that
part of your garden. Sounds like it's visually exciting.

BRANDY, I too am looking for ideas. I'm only ordering
very few roses for next season, so I'm checking all the
pics and opinions carefully, to make great choices. As
for keeping lavender next to roses, that is a tough one.
I keep overwatering the lavender. It's probably just
best, to have lavender roses to bring that color into the
rose garden.

LAVENDERROSE, Heritage and Blythe Spirit would, for sure,
be a watercolor masterpiece together. Even though it was not
planned, it seems meant to be.

AUTUMNSHOWERS, careful with your roses, there. Now, Charles
Lefebvre and Love, sounds nice. I've never seen CL. What does it
look like?

PEACHIEKEAN, I've never heard of anyone with an Ebb Tide tree
rose, behind an Iceburg bush. That must look so captivating. That
rich purple with the white, must get alot of attention.

STEELROSE, Marie Pavie and Dusky Maiden, does sound charming.
Red and white is always a great, classic combo.

BUFORD, Moondance and Frankly Scarlett, sound so interesting
and exciting. I love the name Frankly Scarlett!

BOGIE, Moondance and Homerun, that white and red combo, that
Buford has, is very romantic. It can only get better, in your garden,
with those two.

NIECEY, I love, love, love those pics of GT and Daybreaker.
Graham is my favorite, too. Yours looks so happy. I agree
with Linda, they look great! Thank you for the photo's.

Niecy, your color combo knocks me over! Daybreaker is beautiful!
