@cooldoc ..I love that Lyda Rose, I always wish I had that one.. I think it's gorgeous, every photo I see.. as are all your roses.. I hope your C de C doesn't defoliate.. mine did about this time every year..
@celcius_kkw .. your Sweet Dreams is beautiful, it does make a good patio rose.. I once grew it as a mini hedge..
@pitter-patter .. oh no that's not Sweet Dreams.. I thought you got it from TCL like the other one, when i'd ing roses one can usually only refer to the website inventory, so it's important to know the provenance... it looks a bit like 'Baby Masquerade' but I would have no idea what they sell in Dutch garden centres.. certainly adds a touch of colour.. maybe someone else knows..
@Allyblueeyes ..sorry I wouldn't know, maybe someone else might?. it would be good to know where they get their roses from..
I'm a bit bored of this rain now. I'm not at full capacity but have 2500 litres and some of the butts are overflowing.
Leah Tutu didn't like the extended rain. One flower had snapped off and when I shook it to get the water out the stem snapped again right behind the flower This one was just hanging so harvested it before another raindrop could fall.
Pheno Geno Mileva - photos on 2/7, 5/7. and today in need of deadheading. That's not bad in this weather, is it? After getting used to all those DAs that last 2-3 days... And the blooms are reliably strongly fragrant. @celcius_kkw I've been thinking this could be something to consider for your roof garden. The last bloom on Gertrude Jekyll - that means that the first flush lasted for 6 weeks. 2-3 weeks peak time. And given that there will be a second flush in August, I can't complain.

Thank you anyway @Marlorena. I’ll just enjoy it. I suppose there’s a lot of people who have mystery roses in their gardens 🤔

Flower Carpet pink, looking rather red (both in real life and on the camera) and holding up well in the rain

Available at TCL as well and beautifully scented.
..the flowers are similar but the foliage doesn't look right to me..
