Garden Bloggers' Bloom Day

The Idea behind Bloom Day is that garden bloggers from around the world on the 15th of every month will place photos on their website of what is in bloom in their home and garden. The index of other bloggers can be found on Carol's website, www.maydreamsgardens.com.

I wasn't going to participate in today's Garden Bloggers' Bloom Day. I was just going to continue working and weeding outside. Then I found that my two new roses were in flower and was inspired.

The first is the latest Agriculture Canada rose 'Navy Lady'. It is a dark red with a black velvet sheen.

The second rose is a Weeks rose with Canadian Explorer rose parentage. 'Cape Diamond' resulted from a cross of 'Marie-Victorin' with 'Louis Jolliet'. It is, as one would expect, a rose with pink flowers on a rather large bush. I'm hoping it is as hardy as the other Explorer roses.
