Part of my garden before the main flush of the roses. A number of roses are waiting in line to start. Up the appletree is Lykkefund. On the arche to the left are Etude, Mme Plantier and on the other side New Dawn and Honorine de Brabant. Twigs of Paul`s Himalayan Musk are popping out from another appletre down by the trunk of which a Buff Beauty is waiting. Up front right are Maria Liesa, Veilchenblau and Maxima. The only rose in bloom is Aicha next to a Deutzia in the background. But of course there are lupines, white polemoneums, blue Irises, Geraneum platypetalum ,Brannliljer(Fire Lilies) as we call them in Norwegian, and Centaurea Montana to compensate for these shortcomings. Photo taken in June 2009.

The front of my house with roses taken in July 2009. "Felicia" is in full flush. The salmon pink rose is "Rosenresli" which is a bit difficult to handle as she seemis to have a distinct wish to become a climber.Some flowers of "Coral Dawn" and "Louise Odier" are also visible. The two "Fairies" at each side of the entrance have just started to bloom. The red roses bottom right are of "The Dirigent". The blue flowers are lavenders.
