Ambridge Rose is one of my favorite Austins - one that also stays compact in my garden

Juliette Greco taken in the evening - the color is a bit washed out because of the flash

I like this shot of Margo Koster - it looks like a painting to me

Beautiful shots Marina! I like that MARGO KOSTER one too! It does look like a painting. I love the asters! Is that pink one an aster or a mum? And don't you just love that black & blue salvia? I added some more of those all around the yard this summer. But then, I love salvias. I'm finding so many new colors too. Got a new one called "Hot Lips" that's red and white. And I found a couple of light yellow ones. They make such great fillers.

wow, those first 4 pics really knock me out. my passion for roses is fairly new...it there a name to the round shape or form that your roses are in? Most roses curve outward but those stay round, curving inward.

Just Joey The Alnwick Rose And finally, a rose that I did not order! She was supposed to be Jude the Obscure!! :( I had to look her up and only found a few pictures with the comments that she did not rebloom much ( more like a once bloomer ) and grew tall like a climber in zone 7. I might be in trouble. Do you know her? “Juliette Greco” Trying to contact the nursery. I really want my Jude! She was the reason I put in the order now. (Originally planed to wait till fall) But, I got an email saying that Jude became available. I was on the wait list. ;(
