We got a little bit of rain last night, which I didn't hear, but my partner did. Also we had a tiny bit of rain the other night. It is so windy and cold here. My computer has been running on wind power since last night.

It's windy here too. Not very cold though. I had to water all my pots today - the wind dries them out quickly.

Yes Alee, I have red roses ! LOL
I don't post them very much because my camera can't do reds very well, and the exact shade and intensity gets " lost in the translation"
Here's a few anyway,

Very nice roses Val! Try taking the pictures in an overcast day or block the sunlight and shoot. I think you'll have better results. Good luck.

Oh yes!! It's a beauty Smile

The Spring blooms are to die for, the next ones are more like a miniature, less intensely dark too, but pretty. I'm waiting to see if I get an Autumn flush Smile
Plus it's fragrant too love

Hot Choc in my garden grew about 4 ft tall and 3 ft wide. Dark shinny leaves were pretty. It got mildew in spring and blackspot in summer. The flower colour was an orange red, which quickly bleached out in the summer (did this make the breeder think of hot chocolate?). Repeat was pretty good.

Dee, ALL my roses get black spot!!! I don't think Ebb Tide was severely affected though. Yes, it's very fragrant Smile
