Some of my roses during past week......
Alan Titchmarsh is doing well in heat. Low petal count and mild fragrance but still going great. Bush is healthy.
Pat Austin is in part shade. Nice fragrance but blooms fry out soon in full sun.
I have two bushes in pots and one in ground. All are healthy and producing nice fairly large size mildly scented blooms in heat over 100*F. The last two pics are of the bush in ground and seem like a case of rose proliferation. It quite hot in my area and I do not use any nitrogen heavy synthetic fertilizer. Use only home made compost which is low in nitrogen comparatively and slow release. I wonder what caused the blooms to look like this?
CPM is perhaps the best performer in my house in hot summers. Blooms do not fry out even at 110*F and last for 2-3 days which is very impressive. Moderate tea scent.
Chartreuse de Parme is also doing well. Nice moderately fragrant blooms nowadays.
William Morris has small sized blooms nowadays with mild fragrance. Keeps blooming though
Winchester Cathedral has turned completely pink nowadays. Had white blooms up till few days back. Smells like crushed almonds.
Doris Tysterman had single petaled insignificant blooms in summer with no fragrance up till now. First good bunch this summer. A wonderful rose during cooler months but quite ordinary when it crosses 100*F
Ebb Tide is blooming continuously without break. Bloom size is small, nice moderate clove fragrance.
La France is doing well. Nice sweet fragrance. A good performer during heat.
PAOK bloom are small and fry out within two to three hours. Fragrance is noticeable only early morning.
Liv Tyler is quite a mediocre performer in temps over 100*F. These are two best blooms, there were plenty of worst looking ones.
Rose de Rescht blooms continuously in my climate. Sweet fragrance and lots of small to medium sized blooms.
Oklahoma blooms are medium sized with mild fragrance nowadays. Another mediocre performer in high heat.
Maria Shriver is another ordinary performer. Mild scent and one odd bloom every week.
best regards
