Is the colouring of Atomik a bit like Fragrant Cloud’s? Most unusual, I like it.

Very much so Jac, when in the garden it stands out above all others ,one day I must get a better pic of it.
Ok here are the B's

Ozroz , are these teas, hybrid teas , floribundas , very beautiful ......

I hope there is more to your life and plenty more roses to come mate

Maree I use a lot of early HT's Tea's , China's and some HP"S. I have recently used some species to increase health into them as well . Have bred some Ht's , floribunda's, but most fall into the category of shrub type roses. Dave have been a bit crook but hopefully its going to be fixed up soon, have a few hundred new seedlings look after. Now for the C

Warren
Breathless Charm. Says it all.

Balinbear it has quite a strong perfume of myrrh, which it got from Shiro

Very beautiful. This is great work!

Ozroz, , please excuse my ignorance , so these are roses you have breed yourself ,i'm guessing they are , wonderful , i especially love the ones where the bees can have a feed too , makes roses even more appealing , beautiful as well as feeding nature ......

Maree all these are mine that I have bred over the last 7years,

thank you Poesie.

Ozroz, I really like the colours of FC, a very unique orange that’s nowhere near as bright as some references claim, at least not in my garden. Here it looks like Atomik and the folded petals shine differently; I haven’t seen anything like it before in a rose.

I like the second, silky single in your Bs, but the print is a bit small for me. There are just so many beautiful ones, and I haven’t even started to look closely at the Cs. Do you have an online gallery like Garry where we can take the time that your roses deserve or that we can bookmark for inspiration?

This is just an extraordinary collection and body of work- and we're only at the top of the alphabet!

Too many beauties to single out a favourite, but from the pix alone I am partial to all the cerise doubles. . Which are your most fragrant creations, Ozrose? Do you have any ultra-special ones that you would call your "signature" roses?

Jac Atomik is very bright Orange Red and its foliage is quite dark adding more contrast.

Thanks Betsy, if you like colour wait untill you see the new ones comming through , have spent the last 2 yrs concentrating on colour alone. Betsy about 80% of what i breed has med to intense perfume.
Now for E,F,and G.

are you going to sell any of the roses ozeboy ?

They are really fantastic. So much work, and knowledge that has gone into these. They are a real credit to you Warren and as Jordan mentioned "Are you going to sell any of these"?

What fantastic roses! And so many beautiful ones, I want to dip my face and smell them! These are a credit to you Ozroz, you must be very proud of such an achievement, and rightly so. I would buy them if I saw them in a nursery, especially as they are shrub type roses. I especially love Bighearted and Atomic, just beautiful. Thank you for allowing us the pleasure of seeing "Your life's Work". Ever thought of writing a book about your work?

Thanks Bruce, all my research for breeding starts about one year before hand and by spring I have a headache from going over breeding lines. Its a good headache though when you see the new ones develope into something nice. Aout selling them , I really need the support of a large grower which they tend to be more interested in promoting those roses bred overseas, sad but the truth.

Thanks Silkyfizz,the perfumes you would like, Damask, Fruity, Myrrh, Dianthus/Carnation, Clove, Tea and that of Hélène De Troie (woody, vanilla and spicy). I have thought of compiling something down on paper.

Ok here is H, I,J and K.

In the fragrance list, Ozrose, are you referring to the fragrance types among your hybrids?????? As in Helene of Troie, but also others?

Putting my hand up as a prospective buyer should you decide on 'limited edition' sales of your roses./ My god, what a parade of unending splendours!

Betsy it is a a fragrance list of what I have bred, I have a great passion for scent

I'm gobsmacked, really I am. Not being polite or chummy-encouraging. These roses sing a siren song. To be honest, just on first take, I like these roses a helluva lot more than the Alistair Clarks. (excuse spelling).

These creations have personality that radiates off the page. The fragrance range you have achieved just nails it

Thanx again Betsy.
