Lovely @Tack. Most of mine have finished now and the moderns have had an autumn prune. The odd one here and there - Blush Noisette still going strong as is Ebb Tide, Love Song and Super Trooper trying hard to bloom. Had three days of constant rain though, which is good for the ground at least.
Mountainous Northern Catalunya, Spain. Hot summers, cold winters.
Yellows are mostly The Poet's wife and may be some Golden Celebration, Deep pink is Papa Mielland, Orange is Super Trouper, light pink is unknown HT and left red one is Fragrant Cloud. All from my potted cutting garden except Papa Mielland. He is a one cane wonder in garden bed. I had so many beautiful bouquets this year but couldn't post photos. A new phone or laptop is on my Christmas Wishlist.
Several comments ago someone posted a pic of Roald Dahl. I questioned the actual colour from someone who had grown it because I might buy it for my daughter but I'd really like to know what I would be getting. Somehow what I wrote didn't appear so this my 2nd try. Thanks.
@Mrs-B3-Southampton,-Hants Roald Dahl rose in my garden is more an yellowish than a true apricot colour. But then it is young, being in its first year.
Oxford. The City of Dreaming Spires.
And then my heart with pleasure fills,
And dances with the daffodils (roses). Taking a bit of liberty with Wordsworth
I had some work reward points, spent on amazon vouchers as styles roses have a store there and they had odyssey! Ive been eying it for ages after seeing @Tack 's gorgeous one. Ill be potting it for the patio.
I ordered wild rover too as a short climber for the otherside of a new obelisk. I was torn between that and a midsummer nights dream, but rover won on grounds of my actually having a spot in mind for it! Its got a purple clematis backdrop.
