Rose image gallery

I take lots of pics of this one.[You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]

Rosalie, as always when you show "your" rose off I love it, at this stage does it set any hips.

She's beautiful, Rosalie. What is her name?

Abbi that is The Little Girl's Rose and she is named for my 3 little angel babies .

Yes RM it does set hips freely[You must be registered and logged in to see this image.] they will fatten and colour up a bit as they ripen.
I guess my next challenge will be to plant some seed and see how easily it germinates [or not ]
Heaven only knows how or what they have been pollinated by ; one of the first things those blasted beetles eat when the flower starts to open are all the stamens.[You must be registered and logged in to see this image.] It could be a real Heinz57 mixed bag.

cheers. Rosalie

Rosalie in the picture of the stamens, are they the little bugs on the petals or not.
If you have posted the pictures of the bugs I missed it.

No they are probably thrip These beetles are much larger.
Here they are destroying a flower on Ann Harkness[You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]

Their numbers are declining though , thank goodness . Now my bushes will have a chance to put on some new growth without it all being chewed.[You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]

Rosalie, I love the rain on RdV, copper gem is a "gem". Similar colouring to Just Joey.

Can you do me a favour Rosalie? Can you take a few photos of 'Wedding Day's leaves and thorns please (new shoots, new growth, and old growth). If your macro is any good can I also request stipules at he base of each leaf pleeeaasse... It may help me confirm, or otherwise, an ID I'm trying to sort out.
