Honu,
Here you go. ![]() A shot down the driveway from where the house starts. It is 100 feet to the garage. I have 11 roses mixed in with as many things as I can cram in as possible! ![]() Here's what you see the other way. ![]() Close up of Leontine Gervais, a rambler. ![]() The next rose down is Mme. Ernst Calvat, a bourbon.(Hidden in the driveway photo.) ![]() Then there is the big Climber, Long John Silver. ![]() Next is Souvenir de la Malmaison, another bourbon. ![]() Then comes Bow Bells, an English rose. It is the bright pink one you can see in the driveway distance. This isn't the best bloom photo, but I wanted to show the pretty buds. ![]() Pics of most of the rest of them going down the driveway, I showed in the first post. Here's one from up front, Blue Girl, a hybrid tea. One of the first roses I ever bought, and thought I often threaten it with a shovel, it has survived. ![]() Here's another Buck rose, Aunt Honey. ![]() I hope you enjoyed the photos, Remy

Remy,
Beautiful roses especially the Bourbons. My Souvenir de la Malmaison never gets really big nor produces a lot of flowers, though I love the smell. Last year I managed to find, after some considerable effort, MME Isaac Periere. What a gorgeous rose!!! Perfect flower and scent that is out of this world. I took a picture of it today. Alex

Hi Alex,
Someone that grows Souvenir de la Malmaison father north than me. ![]() Your MIP is beautiful. I would love to grow her if I had the room. I've always heard such great things. Hopefully someday I'll get to smell her in someone's garden. Remy

You're welcome Honu.
![]() Thanks Granny. June is the best month in my garden. I am working on more blooms from other plants especially in late July and August. The roses of yours will bloom great once they get nice deep roots! Remy
