What can one add to the pictures below?
Seeing this rose and smelling the perfume of it is such a joy. You can only be quiet and take in the beauty. Unfolded it is 5 inches wide (18 cm).It is a very strong rose, sometimes with 6 or 7 buds on one stem, flowering until late December with deep coral colours. This particular rose appeared many a time on this blog before, but every new blossom is such a thrill that I just cannot help posting about it again. Together with Rosa 'Peau Douce' it is the biggest rose in the garden. The name of this one? 'Just Joey', a hybrid tea rose.
It is warm in the garden, 30 C degrees forecasted. How wonderful it will be to spend the day in the shade and have a view on these roses that grow so happily next to our pear trees.

Oh aren't they gorgeous I love roses and always go in summer to the rose garden in the park. It's winter now here and would love to hop over to your warm summer
ReplyDeleteThe roses in your park will be beautiful, and well attended, I would imagine. Always so peaceful to sit in a park - it is nice that you have such a place at hand.
