'Elsie Melton' went straight to my want list!

And 'Eden Rose' looks terrific!

Any caveats about these two?

Thank you, everybody! Elemire, I agree that a noisette or a rambler certainly makes a big statement from afar, but I happen to love the closeups of those blooms too. It is not just the HTs and other huge blooms that deserve a closer look:-) Labrea, I agree, not just the leaves, but sometimes the whole bush shape is not too pleasing, but the blooms are wonderful. Audrey, I love HMs too. If only I had more room... Ingrid, thank you, as always, for your kind words and encouragement. Masha

Are the knockouts red? I have medium sized green/light green variegated hostas to trade. Sorry, I don't know the name, but they have done very well in my yard.

Lovely roses everyone! Beth - Elizabeth Scholtz, English Perfume, and Evelyn May are some of my favorites of yours. Ken - Eutin looks like a really good bloomer! Kate - Easter Basket's colors are really lovely. Hoang - I especially like Easy to Please - I wish I could smell the fragrance! Here are a few Es. Easy Does It is one of the most prolific bloomers I have. It's still blooming in near freezing December weather. The photo below is from November 22nd. Elle is in her fourth year and produces quite a variety of colors, mostly pink but often with peaches and yellows. She's fragrant and stays about four feet tall. English Garden - I've only had this rose since mid-summer but I love it! It's still in a pot, waiting to be planted. It had a lovely scent and produced a variety of colors. Evelyn in her second year is still growing and almost constantly in bloom. She's similar to Abe Darby in color but differs in form and fragrance. Happy Holidays everyone! Ann

I hate anthracnose, my roses do not get black spot or mildew. But this creepy disease just has to hit almost every year here. I was a no spray garden but living in the north means a short season. They need all the strength they can gather to winter. Last year I used Bayer fungicide (not the 2in one or 3in one). It did a fairly decent job of keeping it under control. Can’t cure what’s there. As the rose grows the new leaves will be good. I could not find this product locally. Needed to order it on-line. There are fungicides that work better but they are very expensive.

Wonderful pictures again, Beth! I love the picture of Elle with that cheerful sunny background. Elsa Knoll is beautiful, too. How do you grow so many roses among all these redwoods?

Iris gal, ELSIE MELTON (aka PICTURE PERFECT) tends to mildew in the spring. The thrips love her too. So she's definitely one that would benefit from spraying. And EDEN ROSE was a baby own-root from Vintage several yrs ago. It's taken forever to grow and bloom decently. I don't know why I seem to have such a problem getting the own-roots to grow quickly. Maybe I just don't fertilize enough! I like both of these roses. And sorry, I don't know what or "if" they have any scent. I always forget to check!

Thank you Inga! What a wonderful compliment! I'll keep them coming!

Masha, actually those are not redwoods, they're Ponderosa pine trees. They are about 60-75ft high, and are the bane of my existence! The pine needles are the worse part. We're constantly raking, especially now. And then there's the pinecones. The squirrels drope them, sometimes purposely bombarding me when I'm out in the yard. I've been hit on the head a few times, and believe me, it doesn't feel too good coming from 50-60 feet above! Also the squirrels eat the centers out of the pinecones and drop the shreddings all over the place. By the end of summer the ground is covered with the little pieces of outer shells. The trees are tall enough and clipped off high enough that even tho they do provide some shade, the sun still manages to get all around them different parts of the day. If I could afford to have them cut down, I would. But it runs somewhere between $800-1500 per tree! And then I'd have to worry about the tree cutters dropping huge branches onto my roses and other plants.

Beth, thanks for the up-lifting post just what I needed in the middle of winter :-)! I don't have any rose flowers in my own garden right now and I really miss them.

You have so many outstanding roses in this thread, this time even I can't name a favorite...

Great roses Beth! Nice to see rose pics as ours are dormant.
My wife, myself, and our dog Candy were recently in a car accident (1-7-10) We were hit head-on by a drunk driver.
That's why I haven't commented lately. I'm still very sore, so, my commenting will be limited, until I feel better.
Again, great looking roses Beth!

Thanks for posting something to look at during a rather bleak, foggy period we have been having. The only one in this bunch I have is Ebb Tide. The Easter Basket, English Perfume, Estelle de Meilland, and Exciting are all quite nice. I always like to look at them whether I have anything to say or not. Keep 'em coming.

Thanks everybody!

Hey, I hope you guys realize, these are not blooming now! I have a few buds trying to bloom, but my garden is pretty much shut down too. These are all pics from this past season. I just like to post 'em because we're all bored waiting for next season's blooms to begin!!

Jim, so sorry to hear about your accident! Head-ons are horrendous. So glad you you are ok.

Once again some beautiful roses there Beth, thanks so much for sharing them with us. And I agree with everyone else, they really do bring sunshine to a dreary cold winter day.
