Century home in CA with sprawling Eden rose, growing dangerously close to the overhead wires. We hard pruned it last year and am relieved to see it regenerating enthusiastically this year!
First 2 photos are 2024, last one was taken today.
My neighbor doesn't prune, fertilize, or augment his soil at all and these come back healthier than ever every year 🌹🌹🌹🌹

There were a few cold snaps that didn’t do any favors for our 2026 rose garden. (South Central TX 8a.) But danggit if these bitches didn’t survive and decide to thrive!
The first three are Princess Charlene de Monaco and the last is Lagerfeld. All planted about a month ago. I’m in Georgia zone 8A.
How do yours look?? Share progress pics! 😊
the first pic is a gift from my cousin and I'm absolutely in love!!! the second pic is my 3 yr old Rio Samba from Lowes. the third pic is a mystery because it was $5 at tractor supply last year and I can't remember what it is.
It’s peak rose season here in Southern California at Huntington Library Garden. Sharing some of the incredible roses from their Rose Garden! They probably hadseveral hundred different varieties. I tried to take ohotos with the names if ckose up. Enjoy!!
Look at my little seedling babies!!! I am so proud of them 🥹 they’re in a tiny greenhouse, under a grow light. I’m in a constant, low-key battle with mushrooms that keep popping up. But the seedlings seem pretty happy. I only had two to begin, but the fifth one just popped through the soil last night. No idea what the parent plants were so I have no idea what the blooms will look like, but it’s a long time until blooms anyway!
Its a hybrid tea. I dont remember its name. It gives small blooms in its first flush then very large blooms like a grandiflora.
I received a small potted rose plant in February for Valentine's Day, it was doing great until it got very wet and most buds couldn't open so l've moved it to a much drier spot. Recently over the past month, the leaves have all gotten darker and darker. I received another rose plant as a gift and of similar size, and the leaves look strikingly different in color. I live in the PNW in a zone 9 region, and ever since my rose plant got too much water l've been closely monitoring it to make sure it doesn't get overwatered. I grow many other plants but am fairly new to roses so I'm not sure if this is all bad or if my rose needs saving 😿
Do you think these three roses that are 1 gallon will do fine in this large planter?
I'm happy to finally see some growth in the queen Elizabeth that is planted in the ground :) my Tiffany rose is in the pot
Planted last year and was healthy. Actually had two blooms last year, even as small as he is.
This spring, these buds appeared but if they are swelling at all I can't tell.
All of my other roses are well into leafing out.
I'm hoping that he's not dead! this will be my first time growing this variety.
Does anyone else have any experience with Jude and timing as far as being slower than other varieties to wake up?
Thought this info would just inform those outside of North America as RRV is discussed widely on this sub and it’s rarely explained that this only occurs in North America!! (and India in 2017)
For now, us rose gardeners in Europe are free from RRV and there is legislation in place to stop the spread.
Here’s the UK official gov website and its article on RRV
It does advise to keep a look out of any symptoms of RRV on your roses and to only buy from official sources!
I hope all your roses give you some beautiful displays this year ♡ !!
People with dozens of roses, how do you find time to take care of all of them? I'm talking about things like fertilizing, picking off bugs and stuff like that?
There is something incredibly complex about the way a rose exists as both a masterpiece of natural geometry and a massive cultural icon, especially when you realize how every layer of petals is perfectly spiraled to protect the core while the thorns act as a silent and sharp reminder that beauty usually comes with its own set of defenses, it feels like the rose is the ultimate paradox of nature, soft and fragile to the touch but incredibly resilient and capable of surviving in the wild for decades if left to its own devices
I think it might be because they’re being overwatered?
𝓢𝓮𝓿𝓮𝓷 𝓢𝓲𝓼𝓽𝓮𝓻𝓼 is a hybrid, multiflora rambler bred in Japan before 1271 and introduced to the United Kingdom before 1809!
Reaching 10 to 20 feet, this fragrant rose blooms in a rainbow of pinks, from hot carmine to a delicate cotton candy pink.

This rose is a part of my personal garden, I work for AlexanderNurseries.com and we grow old, rare and specialty roses.
