Lovely roses everyone. I spent a happy hour catching up on the posts and drooling over the photos. A posy of Palais Royale for you @celcius_kkw.
I was away for a week, glad the potted roses survived without any watering as my next door neighbour who helps me while I'm away also was away on holiday. Here are a few flowers: Proper JobĀ Dame de Coeur Lost label HTs
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
This is a photo of the gate of a house I saw today during my walk. It would have been nice, if it was covered with roses, just my opinion. What do you think?

Everyone's roses are just lovely, so happy you are all sharing. Some regulars are missing, I do hope all is well.
I can't think why I might share this red rose pic Everything seems to be coming back to a flush again
Desdemona very yellow and openThought I'd show you Seedling 1As we have a family wedding soon and the house will be full I want the garden to look nice. Went to the garden centre to pick up some reduced annuals to pop into border spaces if possible and did really well on that front. These patio roses were only Ā£6 each so decided they could be used for colour too.
The more pictures I see on this thread and the more my wishlist grows! Iād like to have a bigger garden to plant all the roses I like, but alas thatās not to be.
@Marlorena your Bring Me Sunshine is spectacular, though I doubt I would be able to get the same results in my climate, besides I see that itās not on sale for Italy yet.
Thanks @newbie77 for the info, I have the opposite situation, I need to develop my garden in a āverticalā direction and thatās why I always ask for climbing roses
Lovely roses everyone, loving Newbieās range of oranges and lemons especially.
@Veilchenblau you asked āwould you still give your roses a liquid feed despite the ongoing lack of rainwater?ā
If your roses are still happy and blooming and you are keeping them hydrated with at least one deep watering a week, itās probably fine to continue liquid feeding. Food without supplemental water is not a good idea nor if they are really heat/drought stressed or have stopped blooming altogether despite watering. So it really depends on your specific area/conditions, here I stopped liquid feeding some weeks ago.
My roses donāt know if they are coming or going, the weather is heating up again to mid 30s, so whatever is currently blooming will probably give up soon..
