Isn't it great to have roses in the fall, as they make their last debut before the frost comes?

Thanks for stopping by! It is great to have the roses right now as everything else is looking rather tired.

Yes they are going strong, they are beautiful!!
I just love the thrid & fourth one ....are they the same rose...
such beautiful coloring, do you know the names of them..??

The japanese beetles are having a field day with mine!!
But the heat & dry weather doesn't seem to have bothered them too bad!!

Beautiful Roses & photos!!

Catherine, I am not sure if they are the exact same rose, it is the same rose bush. The rose is Double Delight, my absolute favorite, it lasts a long time as a cut flower and smells wonderful.

I might be able to guess the names of some of them - but what's that last beauty?

Anne, it is Truly Yours.

Great looking roses! Mine are looking like crap. I'll have to spend some time on them. Lack of rain isn't helping.

Great photos!
