These roses I saved from the pruned bushes were put in vases and glass jars for a few more days of fragrance and beauty, I just couldn't get myself to chuck them out.
After this they'll rest for the winter........

Winter Roses
Hi, girls, how are things? Hope you are all doing well.
We've had rain, hail and shine ( literally) here,
so when it shines I had to seize the opportunity to quickly go out there and prune the roses.
This year darling hubby is helping me which makes the load much lighter for me,
He got me to teach him the how-to's and now I'm glad to say he's a confident rose pruner,
isn't that great?

Good morning Rosy,
everything is well here!
Congrats on your roses, they are always wonderful!
Have a nice day darling!
Truly lovely as usual!! Thanks for sharing :). Your husband sounds like a great guy - it's wonderful that the two of you can share the load :)! ~Jess
SUch amazing roses. I always wait for your beautiful posts.... x
Really beautiful!
I think I must purchase a rose book to learn about my roses and care for them tenderly. I have several bushes now but they are all young. I want to bring them back in force next year & each year there after. I like you, would grab and show no matter how short lived they may be.
I love your rosy inspiration. That make me dream... thank you.
Great roses from your prunings. I will prune mine this weekend.
Come by my blog to enter my giveaway

Hello Rosy, I cannot get my mind around: winter with you and summer up here...and these lovely, lovely roses, that as you know alraidy always manage to go straight to my heart. My daughter Laura will leave november 3 to come to your continent. If you like I shall give you her recently started blog in wich she is getting prepared for a backpack tour of months to Australia. I myself have mixed feelings offcourse, since its winter with you now and summer here: seems like another planet to me.
Be well, dear friend

Its cold here in Victoria and I am happy to say - mine are all pruned too.
It sure makes the job easier if you can get the other half to help! LOL
Wow..you have taken my breath away with such lovely pictures of roses...I have found my all time fav bolgsite...Thanks for sharing your lovely taste...xx
Hi Rosy (& rose lovers), I've posted my pictures of all the pretty roses taken at the Bern Rose Garden.. Aren't they lucky they have such a lovely garden to go to. Pop over to my blog when you are free.
And thanks Rosy for the post.. "and then they'll rest for the winter".. Rosy, please do post even when in winter cos not only do we want to see the roses when in bloom, we would like to see them when bare, when the first tender shoots come (I particularly enjoy looking at them at these stage).. their first buds, bloom.. all the stages if you can.
Thank you.
Hello, this is my first visit to your blog, and I must say, your roses are just gorgeous! Needless to say, I love roses too, from the title of my blog. What does it mean when your rose leaves get black spots on them? thanks for any information!
