This is gorgeous!
I haven't looked at DG in years, forgot I ever uploaded this photo and was amazed to see it being chosen as bloom of the day here. The rose was damaged by a rare freeze and hasn't done really well since. But it is blooming still today.
Here is a link to my flickr rose shots in case anyone is interested.

Beautiful photos! I especially like the peachy/coral roses. I haven't tried growing roses yet since it seems like so much work to protect them here in Minnesota in the winter, but I just might have to try next spring.
So many beautiful roses in your garden to even name my favorites. Though Sorbet Bouquet is so pretty! LOL
I love your garden vignette shots too. Great garden, Joyce.
