Welcome to Show and Tell Friday! It's time to plant bare root roses here in California so I thought I would share some photos of two that I chose to plant this year. These are photos off the David Austin website. Mine still look like twigs with a few leaves beginning to show.
I'm going to grow these in large pots on my balcony. Since I moved to my new unit in the same complex I now have sun to grow things! That makes me very happy! My last unit was in the shade all day...I found that very depressing!
I chose two David Austin roses and I planted them right after Christmas. The one above is called Queen of Sweden I love the color!

I also chose a white rose called Winchester Cathedral. I think the two of these in bouquets together will be really beautiful! I can hardly wait until Spring for them to bloom!
I really wish I could have planted my very favorite rose which is the Eden Rose but it's a climber and not suitable for container growing.

Beautiful flowers. The perfect images to enjoy instead of the smoggy inversion we are experiencing right now. Thank you for hosting xo
Two beautiful David Austin roses! I have several David Austins-- my absolute favorite rose. If you want another rose for a container, I recommend DA 'Tamora'; average size is about 3 x 3 and it has a beautiful apricot pink, fragrant bloom.
