I like Crown Princess Margaretta very much, except it has a "nodding" tendency which makes it difficult to look directly into the blooms. I always want to tell it to "sit up straight!"

Sometimes I can't tell the difference between my photos of Mr. Lincoln and Chrysler Imperial, but I know Mr. Lincoln is planted in front of the pillar barberry, which is in the background of this photo, so this must be ol' Linc.

This is Redgold. I always want to call it Red and Gold, but it's actually spelled as one word.

'Moore's Striped Rugosa' is a bit of a misnomer since it's not a rugosa. But its flowers last a surprisingly long time on the bush.

Handel is a wonderfully tall, upright climber - almost like a pillar.

Day Breaker is aptly named, because it's one of the first roses I see from my kitchen window every morning as I make my coffee.

Hi Neighbor is a Buck rose I rescued off of a cart of mold covered roses that had just been delivered to a certain store by an insufficiently ventilated truck. It's doing fine three years later. (That's a bud of Singin' In the Rain in the foreground.)

This is Our Lady of Guadalupe. I have lots of these around the garden. They're a very manageable size, and prolific bloomers.

This is a particularly densely colored bloom on Cherry Parfait. Usually the pinkish red isn't as pronounced.

These two Geminis seemed to be engaged in conversation. They were probably gossiping about Brandy across the path, who looked like she was having a bad hair day (not pictured).

Wow I think covers it very well. My redgolds are not as defined as yours seem to be & I can't wait for my Ebb Tide to bloom! too bad that the blooms are SO small, though!
Roses are one of my passions! Just opened, my Etsy shop (to fund my rose hobby)! http://www.etsy.com/shop/Tweet...

Rainbow's End is one of my favorite mini's, because it is such a blooming machine. It's also sold as a climber, which I would love to get.

Here's Royal Wedding. It's one of my fav's when it's at the peak of its bloom (this one is a little past it).
