Eileen, dying to see them when the bloom,..are some of them purchased unlabeled?. One of my very big rose bushes was badly beaten with the wind!,..lost most of its leaves,..looks bad now,..but it will come back to itself.
WOWIE ZOWIE!!! I am jealous Our spring is so behind schedule I bet I won't see a rose bloom until LATE June

I don't think you should associate my name with a rose, Philip. I don't have a very good track record with them!
Philip all six of my newest roses were bought as 'lost label' ones. Some of the best rose suppliers sell stock like this cheaply when the labels are nowhere to be found and they can no longer be identified accurately. I'm just hoping that they all bloom this year as I'm looking forward to seeing what colours they are. They are coming along nicely but no buds yet.
Hi Eileen, i think that's a very exciting outcome to look forward to,..all six,..and not knowing the colour,..i would love that. I was just looking through the posts and at the miniature roses posted,..i used to have a huge minature white rose,..fragrant!,..but the garden used to be covered in white petals for the duration of a month,..that's all it flowered for,..sadly it had to go,..here is a shot of it back in 2008.
