Wild Blue Yonder Roses

by hankinslawrenceimages | Jul 8, 2013 | Flowers, Rosaceae Family

Every time I see the Wild Blue Yonder Roses at the local gardens I fall in love with them. They are amazing shades of lavender – sometimes a little more pink – sometimes almost blue. Not only are they wonderful colors – but they are also big bold flowers – often up to 5″ across.

I hope you enjoy seeing my photos of the Wild Blue Yonder Roses as much as I enjoy seeing them in the local gardens.

More Rainbow Sorbet Roses

The Rainbow Sorbet Roses are one of my favorite roses. I just love all the shades of yellow, pink, orange and red in the blossoms. Each one is beautiful – and different from all the others.

When I find the Rainbow Sorbet Roses blooming at a local garden – I end spending an hour or so photographing them – and ending up with enough photos for a blog post. So I hope you enjoy some of the Rainbow Sorbet Roses I photographed earlier this month.

Rainbow Sorbet Roses

by hankinslawrenceimages | Mar 6, 2013 | Flowers, Rosaceae Family

One of the roses I look forward to seeing every summer is the Rainbow Sorbet Rose. Several of the gardens in my area have them in their collections – so I usually see them a few times a year.

Rainbow Sorbet Roses are known for their blossoms that come in shades of yellow, pink, orange and red. The flowers are about 3″ across and the plants grow to about 5 feet tall and are hardy to Zone 5 (Zone 4 if protected in the winters).

Here are a few of my favorite photos of the Rainbow Sorbet Roses.
