Absolutely gorgeous. My New Dawn never had fragrance and finally succumbed to RRD. Now, I am hesitant to post my few roses! You all put me to shame. I love those soft delicate colors.

These are beautiful, Marg! I always love the purple and gold combination, and those columbines are just lovely too! Of course all of them are, though those are my favorites! The day lilies are beautiful too. Ours are just now starting to bloom, but are pretty common varieties. I'm hoping to add a few new ones either this summer or next.

some of my roses from my garden (lots)

I am located in the Kansas City, MO area, not exactly California. I have grown Kordes' Brilliant in the Pacific Northwest and here in the midwest. It gets about 4 - 5 feet tall, has reasonably good disease resistance, but does benefit from a regular spray program. It is one of my first to flower and last to quit. Its growth habit is straight up, almost cylindrical, but spreading a bit. Its flowering habit is what you would expect as a grandiflora which would be a good class for this rose, but that class is not used in Europe. It blooms singly and in trusses as shown. The color in the photograph is quite close to real and is quite stable from beginning to end and through cool and heat. It does not have much of a problem with our winters here either with the multiple freeze-thaw cycles. It is fairly sturdy. It is one of the few that I have more than one of in the garden. It is available from Hortico and Vintage Gardens. I would put it as one of my better oranges.

Thank you! This was the second bloom for Voila Francois. The first bloom occurred on a cool rainy day and did not open very well. I have had three or four blooms since then and those have opened well. The blooms seem to open early, as the photo in my post was taken around 6:20 AM. Lori

Beautiful, Mas! How does Marijke do for you? I loved the blooms but she didn't seem to like it here.

Your Belle Story is SO cute! What a beautiful rose! How do you find the fragrance on James Austin? I’ve been thinking about that one but I think I remember people saying light fragrance.

Thanks, everyone!

Seil, she is a wonderful rose I must say. She came to me as a mislabeled plant this spring but it has been a top performer this summer. She covers herself in blooms with very quick repeat. She doesn’t just repeat with a bloom or two but a full flush after flush. No blackspot. I am growing it in a pot since I don’t know where to plant it yet.

@oursteelers James doesn’t have much fragrance but I don’t mind. It is a very healthy plant with very quick repeat. The blooms also last a long time on the plant which makes it seem as she is always in bloom.
