Hi Marina! I like your roses and bouquets a lot. You have a lot of creativity.
I noticed you grow Siren's Keep Barden 2003 and very interested if you describe me the fragrance of this one. RVR says that you can detect the smell at a few feet away. Is it similar to Zepherine Drouhin bourbon rose? I have one but it is one time bloomer and I miss the fragrance the whole season. Now I am trying to add wafting roses to my garden that blooms 3-4 full flashes either as a bush or climbers.Zone 6b If you can recommend one I appreciate it.

Does Siren's Keep blooms in flashes 3-4 for a season or only once in spring with sporadic rebloom?
Will it work as a climber 6-8 feet?

Thanks a lot,
Oxana

Dear Oxana,
Yes, I do have Siren's Keep in my garden, but it is planted in less than favorable conditions (poor soil, weeds, no supplemental water). In it's third year it is no taller than 3'. It definitely needs more attention to show it's full potential. So far, my Siren's Keep blooms really sparsely and I had never checked it for fragrance.
I am sorry, I am not of much help for you.

Oh, I forgot to answer your question about 'wafting' roses.
For some reason only one rose comes to my mind - Jacques Cartier - you definitely will smell it from a few feet away.
Lots of roses are fragrant but only Jacques Cartier's fragrance can 'travel' through the garden (to my nose, of course).

Hi Marina ! Thanks for your response. I appreciate it.Your information was very helpfull.
I will research more on Siren's Keep . I like Jacques Cartier rose. Almost every rose of mine is pink color.

Hi,
Most of my roses don't last long in a vase, but there are a few that work fine for the bouquets.
Frederic Mistral (light pink with wonderful fragrance), Bolero (white fragrant rose with old-fashioned blooms),
Yves Piaget, Rouge Royale, Auguste Renoir. It looks like all these roses are from Meilland's 'Romantica' series.
All these roses also make a very attractive bush in the garden.

Marina,

Please click on the "How Do I..." link at the top of the page and review the section about uploading photos. We are enjoying your wonderful photos but because you are uploading them from your garden listing instead of the appropriate rose page, they will not show up on the rose pages.

Upload your photos using the appropriate rose page and select yourself as the "courtesy of" on the upload form. This way your photos will be included on both your garden page and the appropriate rose page.

Thank you.
