Beautiful Leander and Green Rose

This rose fits in well with our English Old Rose Hybrids, even though it has a little of the Leander group in its genetic make-up. This shows up in its rather shiny foliage. It is a superb rose with flowers of an unfading, strong yellow. Their formation is most pleasing, having a neat outer ring of petals enclosing an informal group of petals within. The growth ...is low and naturally rounded, making it an ideal rose for a position towards the front of the border. There is a rich fragrance with strong lemon tints at first, becoming sweeter and stronger with age.

Silver Lace Vine (Fleece Vine)

This vigorous twining vine is unusual because it blooms profusely in later summer, usually August. The flowers are 6 inch clusters, usually greenish white, sometimes pinkish. It has many uses in the landscape because it not only provides a dense screen in a hurry you can have a sizable vine within two years. But it is attractive too. It is a good vine to shade an arbor because it is deciduous and will let the sun in when winter comes. It is a heavy vine that needs plenty of room and a strong support, but its vigor should not be a problem with regular pruning. 

Though the vine blooms best in full sun it will tolerate partial shade. It is not fussy about soil, though a moderately fertile sandy loam is best. It is drought tolerant and has no serious pests. It may die back in winter in colder zones, and dead growth should be removed in spring. Where dieback does not occur the vine may be pruned back fairly hard in fall or winter and will then bloom profusely on new wood. Propagate by division stem cuttings or from seed.

Roses are a traditional symbol of love and, depending on their color, can suggest different nuances of love. For example, red roses indicate passion and true love. Light pink suggests desire, passion, and energy; dark pink suggests gratitude. Yellow roses can mean friendship or jealousy. A lavender or thornless rose can mean love at first sight. White roses mean virtue or devotion. Some roses even combine colors to created more complicated meanings.

Smelling the Roses - English Rose Graham Thomas

The cup shaped flowers are of medium size. Their colour is an unusually rich, pure yellow that would be hard to match even among modern roses, and is entirely missing from old roses. There is a medium-strong, fresh tea rose fragrance, with a cool violet character typical of its colour group. It has attractive, smooth green foliage. Good repeat-flowering from early summer onwards. Named for one of the most influential gardeners of his time. Graham Thomas was a frequent visitor to our nursery and chose this rose himself.

Meaning of Roses Colors

Miniature Rose

This is a miniature rose. Seriously, this flower is the size of thumbnail and It has this marble pattern with white streaks on the pink petals and it was very hard to get a focus on the flower. This plant a bunch of these around the house. They are just too cute.

A happy rose-face, looking out from the shadow of its glossy leaves and a bud above roses flowering in answer to a soft, brilliant day.

A happy rose-face, looking out from the shadow of its glossy leaves and a bud above roses flowering in answer to a soft, brilliant day.  These blooms have a delightful effect from carrying two rose-colors at once - white with the faintest shade of pink pearl, and a warm rosy hue at the center. They are on a tall vine, "James Galway", and swing from an arbor in my cousin's garden, where they greet everyone with their sweet scent and many flower faces like this one.
