Mme Isaac Perriere . I thought this was the most impressive bloom at the show, must have been 6” across.

Marilyn Monroe. This was the actual queen of show.

Several of the people these roses were named after were actually at the show! Up to now I don’t believe I’d ever met the namesake, certainly not Mister Lincoln or PJPII

Great pics.. Congrats to all. I need your opinion.. I have a sport on Erin Alonso.. or a reversion to Bees Knees. I posted pics of the three roses on the Minatures forum. Do you have list of sports with these roses? Here is a link that might be useful: Sport link

...when they do bloom this 2009! Hurrray!!! how totally awesome and dddddelightful!!! You see your photos do true justice to the Gemini because you can see its high-petalled formation, especially! on the side view closeups.. You get full flawless, absolutely breathtaking creams and pinks so it is so nice to see this instead of constant scarring from thrips. My camera cannot get as close as yours because I don't have a super closeup lens yet! maybe for Christmas from my rich, overly generous doctor brother LOL!...but then again, I'd only get bigger and bolder Attack of the Thrips movie poster imaging, lol! Interestingly you are in NJ so it seems your Gemini is far more even in colorations than mine... Mine will undergo a lot of color fluctuations within its bloom life, maybe because we get baking intense, scorching sun in Kansas? as opposed to less direct Northern sun where you're at... What a joy to see your Gemini! perhaps we can rename this thread to Gemini in blooms (Part I)! hugs and cheers to your Gemini!

AACT is actively aerated compost tea. The one where I put below things in a bucket. 2 litre or 1 galoons of water 2 cups vermicompost 2 spoons molasses 1 spoon soya bean powder 1 spoon oats powder 1 spoon of trace elements 1 spoon of rock phosphate I mix all this properly and put in an aquarium air pump to blow some bubbles in this water mix. After 36 to 48 hours I just pour this water onto my leaves.

Old Port. Had to look this one up, it’s an old McGredy rose. This spray attracted much attention. After the show, I snagged a plant from Rogue Valley

Daybreaker. I’d like this one, too!

Thanks Carol and Berrypie, they are all other folks’ roses , mine are too young and I’m not much of an exhibitor anyway. I’m just there to look , chat, and see what I might need to plant in my garden.

Sounds like a great time Ben. Your favorite Madame Isaac bloom looks like a dead ringer for Paul Neyron. Guess I won't have to buy another look alike, I always wanted M Isaac but Paul is nearly thornless, better for me.

- internet photo of Paul Neyron, he produces great big fluffy blooms.

Ben - sure. It's not my thing either. But it is fun to go look. :)

Thank you so much for sharing these pics @BenT (NorCal 9B Sunset 14) ! So nice to see the kind of presentation that rose shows entail and also discover lots of varieties, I didn't know about many of these!

Ben, what a feast for the eyes!

Smokin Hot is a beautiful color and I cant wait to see your Old Port .

Do you happen to know the name of the one pictured (maybe a Polyantha?) that has the white cupped blooms tinged with pink/red edges? It's gorgeous!!! Thank you for sharing!

Berrypie,

Paul Neyron does indeed look like Mme Isaac, I ddin’t notice the resemblance until you posted that pic.

Kristine,

your Daybreaker is ‘rose show’ beautiful too!

KJ

Agree Gemini is a beauty. It performs wonderfully in my brother’s backyard in `Danville/San Ramon area.

Ashley,

I’m sure they must have nice rose shows for the Southeast, too!

Carol

Primping and transporting a rose in perfect condition is too much work, but I sure appreciate it when others do it.

@Meg-zone8aOR the rose you asked about is Margo’s Baby. I love that this rose show had so many obscure varieities, shown off at their best.

Thank you! I wonder where I can find one? 🙂 I love those globular blooms!

@Meg-zone8aOR If you click on the highlighted words "Margo's Baby" in Ben's post above, it takes you to HelpMeFind's page for Margo's Baby. When you get there, click on the tab at the far right that says "buy from". There are several good nurseries listed.

Yeah, I entered one rose show here, and it was exhausting. Got lots of trophies...but not worth it.

I’m surprised you didn’t win ALL the trophies! Who else in your area does all the exceptional work you do to protect your roses from a long cold winter in your area?

Hi BenT! Just passing by, and I was wondering, what is the name on the tag of the 3 cream/blush roses, which are 2 photos below the single(?) Munstead Wood?

I think the second word of the name is ____ Pearls? (But I'm not sure.) Or, it may be ____ Dreams?

What lovely photos, everyone - thank you!

I think the rose in question is Carding Mill. I agree this spray is very pastel for the variety, but I think is looks better this way!

Thanks, BenT!! I think I misled you, I meant a different grouping of roses - it's hard to describe - oh and also, Carding Mill rose is gorgeous too!! -- the pic I meant is the last of a group of 7 photos, and the first one is a large spray of cream with a red edge.

They are all inspiring though - what a wonderful event it must have been! Thanks again.
