@pitter-patter, I like your choice, very beautiful roses, vase and background wall colour.
@Victoria Sponge, lovely rose selection. Looking forward to photos in next season.
Weather has turned mild this week, if I had time, I would have spent all day in garden. Good thing with roses is, there is so much flexibility. I am sure they will be alright even if I prune in March.
@newbie77 - I always prune in Late winter/Early Spring. Usually on or around Valentine's Day, is when I prune all the roses and apple trees, wisteria etc.
Hurrah, we have some milder weather! It’s still a bit frosty first thing but it quickly disappears, so I’m out moving and planting a couple of roses and clematis. Have also filled several builder’s bags full of oak leaves, one bag I bothered to shred so might be ready in two years, the rest will take at least three, possibly even four.
Some autumn colour on Blush Noisette:
Super Trouper is not giving in without a fight - this has been a bud for about three weeks but finally opening:
Mountainous Northern Catalunya, Spain. Hot summers, cold winters.
Super Trouper is a super, isn't it. I have been very happy with mine.
@Mr. Vine Eye, I have never pruned my apple trees apart from removing overhanging branches on border. They are big mature trees. Any idea if I need to prune something so big?
I did chat on DA site, and lady there confirmed that no running codes at the moment. Anyway I haven't yet decided what to get with Eustacia Vye. May be wait till new introduction in spring but I am sure they will sell potted version of their new introduction next year.

I actually haven't got it in the ground yet...might do it today if I have time as am working from home again.
Got my booster jab yesterday. Feeling run down today. I have injured my hip too, nothing serious but wrong timing.
