    Beautiful Woo. I sometimes wish that, like my old dad I wanted to grow roses. But I still like other people's.

    WOO - these roses are absolutely beautiful - and your photography of them is stunning.

    You should do professional pictures for rose brochures and labels.

    The red flower seems to have 2 epicentres to it - I've never seen one like that before.

    Marvellous. x

    Don't know if it's due to global warming or what but the flowering season here seems to be extending each year, about 5 varieties were still in flower at Christmas, Iceberg continued flowering until the first week in February, Ferdinand Pichard bloomed the last wek in April, closely followed by Ard's Rover and Calypso. Iceberg buds have just started to break.
