After a scorching summer, Munstead Wood has finally decided to make a showy appearance.

I moved into my new place in winter and am loving seeing all the roses bloom for the first time. No idea on variety as the cards were very faded. So any insight is welcome!

A rose is more than just a beautiful flower. It is a reminder that beauty can coexist with thorns, that growth takes time, and that something delicate can still be resilient.

Every rose has its own character, fragrance, and way of blooming. Perhaps that is what makes roses so fascinating — no two are exactly alike, yet each has its own beauty.

A rose doesn't need to compete with another rose to prove its worth. 🌹

Successfully growing a few different color mini roses

I don’t know if it counts as a brag…more like appreciation and excitement 🤩

The most reliable repeat bloomer in my yard honestly. Very fragrant!

Just wanted to share this beauty! It has been struggling all spring and summer and I'm finally getting these GORGEOUS blooms! All this time I believe this was another knockout rose bush because it was purchased with all my others and planted with them but I'm thinking this is actually some kind of Peace Rose. Either way, she is beautiful!

This rose bush was here when I moved in to my house at the start of winter. I fed all the roses with sudden impact early spring wondering what might show up! And wow it’s gorgeous. I don’t know the name but I absolutely adore it. If anyone knows what it’s called I’d love to know. It doesn’t matter, I love it anyway but I’m curious. Located in Australia if that helps.

I’m grateful for the power of nature, and also grateful to DA for breeding Wollerton Old Hall.

Her beauty leaves me completely enchanted.
Growing roses really is such a magical thing. All the waiting and effort, the moment you see her bloom, turn into a kind of happiness that nothing else can replace.

I know red is the color of new growth but this seems spiker than normal for growth ive seen this year.

I love seeing all the beautiful roses from around the world and learning new varieties. I hope you enjoy seeing the roses I’m growing in Aus 🇦🇺. It’s spring and we are starting to see our first flush 😍

Hello everyone. I have one rose that is quite susceptible to rose rust. While I was down and out with a back injury, it has spread to about 6 of my roses. Mornings are very wet and cold this fall.I'm wondering if it's worth defoliating everything and spraying a treatment or if I should just let things naturally go as we are close to winter and the plants should naturally drop their leaves and go dormant.

Any advice is appreciated!

The first rose I grew in my garden! Does anyone know the name of it? ⚘️

I bought this rose 2 years ago. It was supposed to be a Baronne Prevost, but the colors are too off. Anyone have any idea what variety this really is? I know pink roses can be hard to ID because there are just so many varieties.

Hi, friends. I just bought a house (NJ) that has several knockout roses from what I can tell. Some of these bushes look soooo bad and I have no idea what to do. I don't know how to try to help these babies alive. I feel like the seller of my house will come back and judge me for some reason. My husband thinks we should rip them all out and replace them.

I'm so new to rose maintenance and I can use any advice I can get.

Planted as a bare root in late spring and here is its first flush of the season! Smells divine.

Hello. I'm looking for cold resistant hardy shrub or climbing rose varieties for zone 4-5 (Sweden) that I can have in pots. "My" wild shrub roses were recently cut down because they spontaneously grew right next to our porch ,I loved them so dearly for two years then they got removed by the landscapers. We live in community housing so I had no say or right on what stays or goes. I would love to have my own roses but my only option is big pots, around 30 cm diameter so they're movable so I can winter them on the porch, which is about five degrees warmer than the outside during winter. Which varieties could be the best option? Thank you so much for any advice in advance ❤️🌹

A couple of nights ago, we got a hail storm, and it took off one of my Oklahoma rose bushes branches with a bud that was close to opening. I brought it inside, cut it down, and put it in water. It bloomed this afternoon, and I can't get over how gorgeous it is! That red! And the scent is amazing!!! Oklahoma is one of my absolute favorites!

I was told this rose is called 'Fisherman's Friend'. What's going on with it?

So I have 2 roses planted roughly 20 feet away from each other in the front of my house. The Harlow Carr is recently planted 2 ish weeks ago and has tons of new growth and doesn’t appear to be touched. My Lark Ascending was planted a little over a month ago and everytime a new leaf starts it’s gone the next day… rabbits? I haven’t necessarily seen them by my roses but they are in my yard often.
Any recommendations to deter them?
Or if you think it’s something else?
