I've never seen a rose like that first one before. Thanks for sharing it!
ReplyDeleteSuch vivid colors!! Beautiful Phillip and I wandered back into your earlier posts! Amazing gardens! Brava!
ReplyDeleteGorgeous blooms!
ReplyDeleteOh, I LOVE Mrs. B. R. Cant! All of your photography is beautiful, and that one especially is spectacular.
ReplyDeleteGreat photos of some lovely blooms.
ReplyDeleteIs the first one Rosa mutabilis 'Chinensis'?
ReplyDeleteWait, what?! "Mutabalis" is not a rose, I don't care what you say! LOL.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful roses Phillip. Isn't it wonderful that the Japanese Beetles are finally gone?
ReplyDeleteThat first rose is amazing. I have a 'Buff Beauty' and like its delicate color.
ReplyDeleteClair Matin has such a beautiful color! I like the fountain, too!
ReplyDeleteLes, you are correct.
ReplyDeleteSweet Bay, I am happy that the Japanese beetles are gone. They were not too bad this year.
beautiful, Phillip
ReplyDeleteI like them all. I think I'm going to but a bare root the Autumn, probably Rosa Moyesii 'Geranium', apparently the hips are fantastic,flagon shaped.
ReplyDeleteWow Phil, lovely blog, so much info too. I look forward to 'digging' in. Thanks!
ReplyDeleteAbsolutely beautiful! As each photo opened on my screen, I kept thinking..."That's my favorite! No, that one is....no, that one!" I guess I'll just have to love them all!
ReplyDeletePhillip~~Your roses are always beautifully charming. Mutabalis is unique and lovely....I seem to remember that Buff Beauty makes a wonderful show in your garden! gail
ReplyDeleteHow lucky to have so many roses still blooming! I love 'Clair matin', it's just beautiful!
ReplyDeletePhillip, lovely photos. I hope we get a few blooms in September. The Japanese beetles will be gone about the middle of the month. Doesn't leave much time for them to bloom before it frosts.
ReplyDeleteMarnie

ReplyDeleteLovely.....
Your roses this time of the year are so beautiful. I've had fun surfing your other blogs. Your garden is quite spectaculat
ReplyDeleteBeautiful roses!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful roses. I hadn't seen the mutabilis before though I know it by name. I am a displaced gardener at the moment but on eday I will get it back, hopefully.
ReplyDeleteI love this mutabilis rose. Saw one this spring about 6ft wide and at least as tall.... Yours is great!!!!!
ReplyDeleteRose and plume poppy -- a combo I hadn't considers.
