Roses in an English garden 2017...part 1..

In case anyone does a google search, they might come across this thread, and be interested in the roses we can grow here. This forum is very quiet and I don't expect any response, it is for future reference in case anyone happens to be looking in say, from Mars in 2100... I'm sure they will need some Austin's up there too, won't they?..I hope so..

Otherwise, if you notice and would like to comment, you are more than welcome, and to share anything you like from your own garden too...

I hope to post some more here for this coming season... I think it's important to try and reinvigorate an interest in roses and companion plantings...and I don't object to talking with myself in the process..

I do hope that, from afar, you find something of interest... I grow mainly shrub, older style roses, and Austin's. I don't grow modern hybrid tea roses..

'Kew Gardens' [Austin]

'Mme. Lauriol de Barny' [Bourbon 1868].. with 'clg. Desdemona' [Austin]

'Mme. Lauriol de Barny' / 'Gloire de Ducher' [Hybrid Perpetual]

'Princess Anne' [Austin' / 'Blush Noisette' / Geranium 'Eureka'..

'The Herbalist' [Austin']

'Kew Gardens' / with 'Purple Skyliner'.. modern rambler..

'Ghislaine de Feligonde' [ rambler 1915]

'Gruss an Teplitz'/ bourbon/china type.. Geschwind 1902..

'Lady Of Shalott' [Austin] climbing a wall..

..rather a lot going on here.. Foxgloves are an essential companion

I think...
