From June until now the roses have been on a “non-stop” bloom cycle…
These are some of the beauties that have graced my garden this summer…a combination of hybrid tea and floribunda roses.
Roses are my all-time favourite!

Roses are my favourite too, (obviously, as in Tattered Rose) followed closely by peonies, hydrangeas and lilacs. I SO admire your gardening skills, Judy!
Hi Carol…it sounds like we would chose the exact same flowers to grow in our gardens!
Gorgeous!
Thank you Carolee…Roses always up the beauty ante!
Just lovely Judy! Growing roses has always intimidated me as I would have to grow them in pots, but seeing those makes me want to give it a try next year!
Hi Catherine…I have been thinking of trying roses in pots too. On your protected balcony you may have success with that. They would smell heavenly up there!
Beautiful, so fresh looking. I can smell them!
Hi Eva…it’s true, they smell heavenly!
Beautiful Judy! I can almost smell the fragrance. I planted two Canada Shield rose bushes a few years ago. They are beautiful full red Roses, with a lovely fragrance. This species was created for our harsh northern climate, and seem to be foul proof. Another bonus is that they bloom all summer.
Hi Karen, It’s amazing that in such a short growing season like we have roses can provide so much pleasure! I’m happy to hear that your roses performed so beautifully this summer.
