We’ve yet to have 32F in the garden neither a touch of frost, so we can still enjoy blooms like this Princess Alexandra of Kent. Sublime perfume. Have a safe week, especially if you’re traveling.

Today’s joy is Rosa ‘Autumn Damask’ with a fine damask (what else?) perfume. This is quite probably the plant that writers in antiquity described as the Four Seasons Rose of Paestum.

Today’s joy is another historic rose, Rosa Alba Semi Plena. It was most likely “The White Rose of York” in the Wars of the Roses in 15th century England. Richly perfumed.

The exquisite Rosa ‘Clothilde Soupert’ lives in a glazed pot near the seating area so that when you sit the rose is at your eye level.

Today’s joy is my Duchesse de Brabant rose in the front garden. Disease resistant. She will flower until the first frost.
