@Marlorena I like Mme. Antoine Mari, I actually like the lanky habit of teas and chinas, nodding blooms and curled or quilled petals.
@Daniel Rutherford I love the colour of your Gabriel Oak. When they introduced it, it just looked like another deep pink. But I am starting to like it after seeing Marlorena's and your photos with the purplish (or colder pink, magenta?) undertones.
..fabulous roses.. your Gabriel Oak looks much better than mine Daniel...
@Nollie .. I forgot to mention earlier about your Lady Emma Hamilton... that it has botrytis blight... if that was a recent photo you should prune that right out, but I expect you've already done it...
@Marlorena, do you mean the photo of the single spotty bloom? That was a summer photo to show how they go in the heat - is that botyris? Or was it on the later photo Peggy reposted?
Mountainous Northern Catalunya, Spain. Hot summers, cold winters.
That Royal William bud looks lovely celcius_kkw, I'm looking forward to seeing that open. I also like that Morning Mist above from Daniel Rutherford that was also mentioned a few weeks back on here.
I have Rhapsody in Blue as well, it's one of my few roses with a scent that wafts but it isn't flowering at the minute. Yours looks great Mr Vine Eye.

i think it could become a very popular rose if it’s as good when it matures!!

Almost there..
I’m loving the new flush of rose pictures here. Keep them coming! 😍

It was my first rose to flower this year.
I love the smell in the garden now when everything's in bloom.
