Beautiful bouquet Rita! I love how those double Siberian irises have a rose form!

Sharlene, so far Berolina hasn't exhibited as much fragrance as I'd expected. Light and pleasant, but not as strong as I thought it would be. However we have been having warm, muggy weather and it seems none of the roses are as strongly scented under those conditions. I've also detected a nice, light fragrance on Golden Fairy tale I hadn't expected. It gets considerably larger than Berolina - something to keep in mind when you decide.

Beautiful roses, Rita, and you're right, the iris really holds its own among them.

CIndi, enjoy your trip, it sure sounds like it will be an adventure--all those roses and gardens to view!
