    When I see a spectacle like this I feel a deep seated case of Rose envy. Heavenly.

    Wonderful! There is nothing like a swath of roses to create a mood of romanticism. I once planted Rambling Rector, hoping it would climb a nearby tree and create such a spell. Didn't happen; it neither bloomed or climbed, and eventually I removed it. Sigh. Yours is perfect!

    Wonderful! And the rest of the garden looks just picture-perfect as well!

    I know I've said it many times, but here it is again - your garden is gorgeous! And, the roses are charming!

    I really enjoyed the violet lavender colors, if that is their real color. They look that way on my computer screen. I want even though I don't grow roses.
