Great pictures! The reds are so hard to capture accurately, but you got 'em pretty darn good! That INK SPOTS is one of the hardest, but that shot is so perfect! What kind of camera do you use?

The red roses are coming from the rootstock; the roses you wanted to grow are, sadly, dead. Fix yourself a glass of your favorite beverage and read some of the threads linked below. Here is a link that might be useful: Dr. Huey rootstock on Rose Forum

Looking for a red rose red hybrid tea

I looked at Kardinal on an image search and some of them look red, but some look pink and some look more orange. I think the camera, the culture, and the lighting conditions influence the photographs so it's hard to tell which is really true red. I used to have an American beauty growing up, I thought it was really red, but now I read it's on the pink side. It was not a hybrid tea, it was more like a big huge bush with red roses on it. It's probably good to go to rose shows and nursery to see them in person before selection a color that is the red that you want.

I didn't even see the shells and I was looking down trying to figure out how many roses were in there! I still think that's a great accent to put in there. Maybe Flaming Peace needs a lot of heat to set it off. Excuse me for posting in your thread and this isn't a really good pic. I pulled it out for an example. Here is Chicago Peace in 104 with yellow at the base. Yellow is usally not a color I see in my CP, pinks are, but now that it's getting really hot it's showing up. I am enjoying your pics and your reds are wonderful. Leslie

Rose and Red Rose same tomato?
Q

Rose should be a large, pink tomato on a regular leaf vine available in its correct form from Johnny's Selected Seeds and orginating with the Amish from whom Dr. Grace Kaiser, New Holland, PA, got it (from her patient Hannah Lapp) about 1960. There is a potato leaf Rose circulating which I believe came from (or at least I got it from) Bakers Creek and the source seems to have been seed taken from a tomato bought in a farmers market in either northeastern Ohio or northwestern Pennsylvania. This particular tomato supposedly has been discontinued for sale as of late 2007 or early 2008. Red Rose is a stabilized cross of Brandywine x Rutgers and is red, and I believe grows on a regular leaf vine. The seed is available from Tomato Growers Supply last time I looked. It's about an 8-oz. fruit. But then there's another Red Rose circulating out of SSE Yearbook that's 2 - 4 ounces in size and I don't think it's related to the Brandywine x Rutgers parentage.

I feel like I've just had a drink of the best red wine.

Yesterday I sniffed Chrysler Imperial and almost bought it. Starved for a good red since Mr. Lincoln died. Chrysler's fragrance was so strong --- much stronger than Oklahoma's. Don't know if that is truly the case?

Best photos of red roses I've ever seen! Will have to read about the Nikon S10 on dpreview. And about Schwarze Madonna. Thanks for posting.

Iris gal, I love Big Ben from Roses Unlimited. It smells very strong. Schwarze Madonna has no fragrance and small flowers.

iris gal, it's funny...I am growing Oklahoma, and think the fragrance is the strongest of all my roses. I didn't detect ANYthing from Chrysler Imperial at the nursery. Noses are funnny, fickle things.

Markis, your reds are gorgeous! I thought I liked pastels the best...besides orange..but the right reds are beyond words. I hope my cutting of Lavaglut takes!
