Le Rosier Évêque or The Bishop, as it's also called, is claimed to be both a centifolia and a gallica in the rose literature. It was first described in France in 1790, so it's an old cultivar. The roses are magenta coloured with shadings of greyish purple. The shrub grows to a height of 1.5 metres and it's once flowering during July. I got my sspecimen as a runner from my gardening friend Karin.

Le Rosier Èvêque
Le Rosier Évêque eller The Bishop som den också kallas, klassificeras både som centifolia och som gallica i roslitteraturen. Den beskrevs redan 1790 i Frankrike så det är en ros med anor. Rosorna är purpurfärgade med skiftningar i grålila. Busken blir ungefär 1,5 meter hög och den blommar en gång under högsommaren. Jag har fått mitt exemplar som ett rotskott av min trädgårdsvän Karin. Zon 5.

Gloire des Rosomanes
Gloire des Rosomanes (Vibert, 1825) är en Kinaros med halvdubbla, körsbärsröda rosor med vitt öga. Busken är anspråkslös och nästan helt taggfri och den blir drygt en meter hög. Den lär ha använts flitigt i förädlingsarbetet av röda rosor. Kan förökas med sticklingar. Zon 3.
Gloire des Rosomanes (Vibert, 1825) or Ragged Robin/Red Robin as it's also called, is a China Rose with semidouble, cherry red roses with a white eye. The shrub is undemanding and almost thornless and grows to a height of just over one metre. It is said to have been used a lot in the hybridization of red roses. Can be propagated by cuttings.

Morden Snowbeauty
Morden Snowbeauty (Colicutt, 1996) är en fantastisk liten buskros! Härdig med väldoftande, halvfyllda rosor från tidig sommar till långt in på hösten. De vita rosorna har rosa stänk på blombladens utsidor - väldigt vackert! Zon 6.
Morden Snowbeauty (Colicutt, 1996) is a fantastic, low growing shrub rose! Exceptionally hardy with scented, semi filled roses from early summer until late autumn. The white flowers have pink shadings on the outside of the petals - very lovely!

Konrad Henkel
Konrad Henkel (Kordes, 1983), eller Avenue Red som den också kallas, är en storblommig, röd ros med stark doft. Den växer upprätt med styva stjälkar och blommorna kommer dels ensamma och dels i klasar. Rosen remonterar och rosorna är vackert blåröda.
Konrad Henkel (Kordes, 1983), or Avenue Red, as it's also called, is a large flowered red rose with a strong scent. It has an upright growth on sturdy stems, and the flowers occur both one at a time and in clusters. The shrub is remountant and the roses have a beautiful bluish red shade.

Parade
Parade (Boerner, 1953) blev en angenäm överraskning när jag fick denna för mig okända ros, av maken för ett par år sedan. En storblommig, remonterande klätterros med blommor som ser ut som pioner! Denna ros är en avkomma av klätterrosen 'New Dawn', men 'Parade' blir inte lika hög - odlas med fördel som en pelarros. En av mina favoriter! Kan förökas med sticklingar.
Parade (Boerner, 1953) became a lovely surprise to me, when I got it as a present from my husband a couple of years ago. I'd never heard of this remounting relative to the climber 'New Dawn' before, with large flowers that look like Peonies! 'Parade' doesn't grow quite as tall as 'New Dawn' and has rapidly become one of my favourites! Can be propagated by cuttings.

Elinors ros
Elinor (Holmström, 2006: Rugelda x Astrid Lindgren) är min första, egna roshybrid. Det är en korsning av rugosa och en floribunda som jag inte har registrerat ännu - den behöver utvärderas mer, men verkar lovande! Rosorna, som doftar gott, är mellanrosa med gult öga och de bleknar med åldern till ljust persikorosa. Busken blommar hela sommaren och har fått sitt namn efter min dotter.
Elinor (Holmström, 2006: Rugelda x Astrid Lindgren) is my first, 'home-made' rose hybrid. It's a crossing between a rugosa and a floribunda, which hasn't been registered yet as it needs some further assessment, but so far it looks promising! The scented roses are medium pink with a yellow eye and they change to a light apricot pink shade as they age. The shrub blooms throughout summer and has been named for my daughter.

Santana
Santana (Tantau, 1985) är en riktigt röd ros med sammetslyster! En låg klätterros med vackert formade rosor som remonterar. Doften är svag, men angenäm. Zon 3.
Santana (Tantau, 1985) is a trully red rose with a velvety sheen! A low, remountant climber with perfectly shaped roses.The scent is weak but agreeable.
