Comments (33)I am finally getting back and seeing all the wonderful comments on trying to help me obtain this rose. My life has been a bit chaotic lately. Putting both of my parents in assisted living and selling their house. Unfortunately, I was not able to get up there. Perhaps next year...Thank you all for your help. It was very thoughtful. Maybe I will have room next year and water restrictions will be lifted (I could also win the Lotto too--have to play it first, of course which might be a problem....). It would be fun to meet all of you in person. Thank you so much again. It looks like everyone who was there had fun....See MoreJersey Shore Rose Society (JSRS) Rose Show, September 19, 2015
Comments (3)As always, a pleasure. (Hard work, long day, but a pleasure :-) With some of the JSRS members prodding me, maybe next year I'll even enter an arrangement ... IF I can figure out the "styles". I almost did it this year, but feel "style" illiterate....See MoreJersey Shore Rose Society (JSRS) Rose Show, September 19, 2015

Comments (5)I was perusing one of my favorite rose blogs, and stumbled upon the book reference and You Tube video. I later noticed that the book was the topic of a thread from last year. I clearly missed the previous forum posting, and posted the information for anyone unfamiliar with the book or video. One thing I noticed is that there seems to be a Women in my Garden book released by the publisher in 2014, and one from earlier this year. I am sooo busy, and have not found the time to research the difference if there is any??? I enjoyed the video content and learned how to "properly" pronounce some of the rose names. My second language knowledge etc. is Spanish, which is not particularly helpful for so many French names. Lynn...See More

8 years agoI don't know how you do it, Beth, my 32-33 roses are plenty to keep me busy, I can't imagine being surrounded by all those gorgeous blooms, thank you for all the beautiful portraits over the years.

8 years agoBeth you're nuts! In the best way, of course! And really, aren't we all?
Grey Pearl and Gypsy Lantern are my favs from this list... but it's just choosing awesome from amazing. They're all gorgeous. Sorry to hear about Gitte - love that soft apricot colour!
Mossy, what a lovely photo of Grand Prize! You should have included that one in the Calendar thread! :)
I have only one G - Gentle Hermione. It was a mislabel sent from DA in Texas; I had ordered Darcy Bussell. Happily, I quite like it, and DA was not only able to identify it for me right away, but will be sending Darcy Bussell at no charge this coming spring. Win-win!

8 years agolast modified: 8 years agoPat, the bush shots of George Burns are gorgeous. I've wondered how some of the stripes would look in the garden--I feared they would be too "busy" looking or out of harmony with the other roses, but your GB has convinced me that they add a wonderfully effective decorative effect! I also like the bush shot of Grussen Aachen--another one I was having trouble visualizing in a garden. I love its subtleties.
Mossy, love your "frilly" Grand Prize.
Beth--so many lovely yellows under "G"--yellows are my favorite rose color. That shot of Garden Party was interesting, with the play of light and shadow across that shapely form.
Grand Amore is looking grand--thanks Beth and Sara.
Why didn't I take a photo of my Ghislaine de Feligonde? She just put out a few blooms and will probably do much better next season, but you'd think I could have grabbed a quick shot--just so I could brag about her, wouldn't you!
Well, here's Green Ice--but not a very good picture of how she sprawls and the subtle green and even peachish shadings she can get sometimes.

8 years agobeautiful roses everyone!
In Germany, Kordes 'Cream Veranda' is known as 'Garden of Roses', an apt name I think because it is constantly in bloom!
