Rosa 'Frantasia' syn. Rosa 'Rhapsody in Blue'

I love this rose, it's just about the only one besides my Freddie rose that hasn't been affected by rotten old black spot. It's got so many buds on this year but last year was just as good 💜💜💜💜

Beautiful colour 💜💜

Gorgeous 💗

It’s a lovely rose Chris 🌹🌹🌹

Gorgeous 💜💜

Stunning 💜💜💜

This one is amazing this year, lots of lovely roses and more buds on her. I love roses when you can see the middle. Unfortunately my Peace rose and Nostalgia didn't flower this year. I need to move the latter. There's work to do! Have a lovely weekend everyone 💜💙

Aren’t they lovely when they open up like this 😍 so beautiful 😍

Beautiful rose 😍😍

That’s beautiful Chris. 🤩 don’t feel bad. My roses did terribly this year. Still looking for a Freddy. 🙂

Gorgeous colour!

Fabulous 🤩

My first one this year and looking better than it did in its first season. So lovely to see 💜💜💛

Such a lovely colour 💜💜💜

@pelly It isn't it Jane 💜💜💛

Love the colour

Beautiful color👍

Love the colour. So pretty 💜💜

Such a great colour 💜

These poor things had wilted in the hot sun when I got home 😳💜💜

They look nice and refreshed now 😊

@london148 They've gone is what I meant, sadly, they were beyond a drink 💜💜

Oh no ! Poor things

Love that one 💜👌🏼

@london148 I know. Hopefully it'll be stronger next year. It looks delicate just now. Mind you where it is, is really over crowded 🙄💜💜

Look what I found hiding, I've over planted in this area. This rose is hidden and so too, another plant 🙄💜💜

I'm terrible for over planting. I'm trying so hard to reign myself in 🙄😂💜

@pelly It's also the Crocosmia hanging over so much too. I also put the big Cosmos plant right in front of it. I completely forgot about the rose 😳

Aww poor rose. The crocosmia should look great with it but if some of your Cosmos are like mine they’ve gone silly. I’ve already taken some out and I think two more will go tomorrow, they’re huge and flowerless, I really don’t know why I grow them as I always end up taking most of them out 😱🙄😂

@pelly Cosmos can be tricky things. The ones blocking the rose might get moved. They're really great but I bought them and, like I say, forgot about the rose. I can put it right ♥️♥️

Ooh ooh I nearly forgot to post this. How could I. 💙💙💜💜

I did a little gardening today and found this nice little surprise. Hopefully, soon she'll unfurl 💙♥️

Cataloguing and, planted today 😊😊💜💜
