Sorry, no pictures. Aunt Margy's Rose is really the star of the show here followed by Winecup and Mr. Bluebird. Marie Pavie and Lullaby have a couple of blooms. I have one cheater rose- Andenken an Alma de l'Aigle- that arrived from ARE with buds that opened a week or two after she arrived and is just now finishing. She is a really pretty rose and fragrant. I hope she'll do well here.

My garden today in late November

Most of the roses have finished a flush at some time in October, but scattered blooms remain and some look like they have another flush left in them.

Veteran’s Honor has the most blooms

Beatrice looking extra fancy

Edith…promising new rose for me.

Forever - nice roses...my faves are your beautiful Lavender Crush and Purple Prince!

Ben - your yard looks amazing!! My faves are your Edith, Fragrant Cloud (what a luscious color), Augusta Luise, and your INCREDIBLE Chicago Peace!!!!

Ben, where did you get Julie Andrieu? Etsy? Its my new obsession. Yours is a climber, correct?

Elena,

Yes, Etsy. Julie Andrieu is a small climber. Sometimes it is sold as Eduard Manet. There is some question if they are the same, but one of my friends asked the Delbards and they confirmed yes.

Amazing pictures, all! I have had some blooms in Nov. after a 23 degree freeze around Halloween. Still have some buds out there. Some Nov. blooms on Augusta Louise, Red Intuition, Gardens of the World, Sharifa Asma, Teasing Georgia, Aloha, Marc Chagall, Moonlight in Paris, Flamenco Rosita. Harlekin, Cl. Pinkie. Most are done.

Elena, Ben, Newbie - what gorgeous blooms!!! I am pea green w envy (or should it be Christmas green?)! Dianela - that’s a lovely bloom. Thanks for this thread.
Ben, your Chicago Peace positively glows. Love the hummer at your sage.

Here is Well Being

Love Song - bud

Quietness - bud

A supertunia!

Distant Drums - bud

Here is CorneliaCornelia And Felicia On the fence line. That was still blooming last week Along with a seafoam flower. I started seafoam from a cutting and it was still a very small cutting but set bud without my noticing. So I cut it off put it in some water and She bloomed charmingly. I can't remember If the pink flower is Phloxy baby Or Daydream. Lastly is madame aniseet from Early in the month.

Pics to follow.

I'm giving up for the moment. This is ridiculous. 20 minutes to try and post these pictures. Don't know if it's my phone or whose

Life of the Party (Huntington’s 100th):

Moonlight in Paris

Vapor - lovely! I have a tiny Felicia I bought in a 4” pot, still waiting for her to take off - I should show her your photo & see if she takes the hint!

And - Loves Promise

Gorgeous! I will have to look that 1 up to see if it is hardy in my zone.

Most of my polyanthas are blooming at the moment, and a few chinas. Margo Koster and stable sports I got from her - one is pure white, and another is deep raspberry. Little White Pet, Cecile Brunner, Perle d'Or are all blooming. Also some chinas - Cramoisi Superior, and Le Vesuve.

Jackie

Alyssum is blooming here and has not stopped blooming since spring. Some years I had no luck with alyssum but the last two years it has been great. I bought common, regular old Carpet of Snow seeds and started them indoors last Feb. or so. They grew to be good sized plants and I enjoyed them a lot. Maybe they'll self sow this time but if the dry weather continues they might not. Butterfly weed is also still blooming after a 23 degree freeze, and some salvia. A potted Fama Blue scabiosa is about to bloom. Calibrachoa is blooming, and some Profusion zinnias which I had brought indoors during the freeze. Have some chrysanthemums winding down. We're in for some hard freezes next week.

I thought Cornelia was the last 1But had surprised today When 6 were blooming! I will try to post pictures later because it takes so long for them to download. The flowers were Cinco de mayo, Jacques Cartier, Deanna Krause, Hermosa, Autumn Sunset and lastly La France.

Thanksgiving Bouquet,Norse’s plus some blooming honeysuckle and a few sago palm fo ds:

Ugh, that went out unedited. Should have read : roses, plus some blooming honeysuckle and sago palm fronds.

The light pinks are Our Lady of Guadalupe. The other: from left to right, Dream Come True, Dr. Grill, Princess Alexandra of Kent, a bud of Moonstone, and Darcey Bussell.

OLOG has freckles because of rain ..

PAOK does not bloom often, but when she does, it’s brilliant.

Here is Camille Pissarro. I cut this on Thanksgiving, when it was just opening up. Today is Monday - five days later. CP in its third year, second in the ground. He’s grown into a tallish floribunda, often in bloom. Sometimes I can even detect a scent. Delightful rose!

Sylvia - that's a beautiful bouquet!

Does Camille Pissarro have a strong fragrance? He is beautiful!

Here are the open flowers several days later from the buds above:

Quietness

Distant Drums

Love Song

And two more:
Celestial Night

Well-Being

Deborah, I like your love song, distant drums and celestial night!

Deborah - your Celestial Night is exquisite!!! I love that bloom of Love Song.

Ben, regarding Edouard Manet might I ask which Etsy ?

I took some pics this morning

Yves Piaget

Just Joey

Doris Day

Monet

Apricot Nectar

Parade Day

Fragrant Apricot

Charles de Gaulle

Deborah, I adore Quietness and Parade Day. Yours are beautiful.

Thanks, Newbie & Carol!
Susan - what gorgeous blooms. Does fragrant apricot smell like an apricot? It’s beautiful.

Yes - I’m so happy I got Quietness - only knew about it because of this forum! Susan, I agree, your Parade Day deserves a parade! 😝

Deborah, Fragrant Apricot doesn't smell like apricots... but it does have a nice strong classic rose fragrance. I'm also a big fan of Quietness.

I took these because I'm trying to get pics of my roses that I have no pics of. It's shocking the number of mine that I have no pics, despite having them for a long time :-D

Susan - I had no idea that Yves Piaget could get that vibrant of a color!!! Gorgeous!! I love your Doris Day blooms...what do you think of the fragrance? I love Charles de Gaulle's color. I think my favorite is Monet. Love them all!!

Susan

Love the fall colors on Just Joey and Yves. I would also like to know if Doris Day is fragrant, and how she compares in growth to parent Julia Child.

Deborah

That’s a beautiful Celestial Night, I think about buying that one every time I pass by it at the nursery.

Looks like rose season is still in full swing in Santa Barbara!

Berrypie,

I looked up my records on Edouard Manet, and it looks like I got it from a private seller. But I do see it on Etsy from time to time.

Carol & Ben, I find the fragrance of Doris Day to be a nice (maybe a little fruity?) medium classic rose fragrance. Depends on the time of day, as usual. I have two of them, one in full sun year-round, and one that gets a bit more shade. I've never detected an anise fragrance like Julia Child. Doris is a bit taller than my Julia, but my Julia Child stays at or below 3 feet. So maybe Doris might reach 4 feet. Doris blooms a lot, even better than Julia. All are grafted.

As I was leaving today around 2 pm for a Christmas party, I noticed that the Just Joey was fully open, and I wanted to take a pic, but I was in a hurry. JJ is in a spot that doesn't get a lot of sun at this time of year.

Carol, to me, that color on Yves Piaget is pretty normal most of the year. Maybe a smidge darker than in warmer temps, but not by much. Monet is a really rare one that has a wonderful fragrance and a unique look.

Mmmmm...Monet!

Thanks for the info on Doris Day. :) Sounds like an amazing bloomer.

Cut a bouquet for a friend’s party today. Patsy Cline, Tahitian Sunset and Veteran’s Honor , MiP mainly.

Susan

Thanks for the info on Doris Day. I have always thought it might be in some ways similar to Julia, with bigger blooms.

I'm not sold on Doris. She was introduced in the US in 2015 and has only 6 favorite votes on HMF and three pages of photos. Why aren't people growing her? One of her parents is Julia Child, and I'm sticking with the parent.

Beautiful bouquet, Ben. What's it like to still have roses blooming? Diane

Stunning bouquet, Ben! I do have roses blooming, but not big flushes.

Here’s Perfume Factory:

Ben - GASP - I looove your bouquet!!!

Diane - I'm not sold on its fragrance. I love the bold yellow, though.

Deborah - oooh!! Your Perfume Factory bloom is gorgeous!!! My PF's blooms (from August) are quite a different color. Interesting.

Carol, you PF's blooms are gorgeous, and I love their structure of abundant petals. They look like very large blooms. Diane

Thanks, Diane! That's from before it got Downy Mildew...hopefully it will look that good again next summer.

Carol, your PF is amazing! my PF has the same color as yours, but it has never had more than 2 flowers any day. I hope it will do better this year. The fragrance is wonderful

We have had mild temperature past days and Chrysler Imperial is putting out a bloom. Still very fragrant

Forever - yeah, I hope your Perfume Factory steps it up this year. It's a great bloomer. :) :) Ooooh!! I love that Chrysler Imperial bloom!!! I dumped by CI this summer because it didn't do much. I'm too impatient.
