100 roses for 100th post part 1

 In celebration of the 100th blog post here are 100 roses. I'm going to break this into 3 parts.  Some of them I am currently growing, some I have grown in the past, and some are those to that I saw in parks and cemeteries but have not grown. Some are labeled, some not. Pictures 1 through 34.

Charles de Mills, opening. This picture is of the rose that I was growing in Atlanta, GA. Charles de Mills is my favorite rose. I have grown it in Oregon, Georgia and now am growing it in Missouri. I just got a couple of plants this spring from the nursery Long Ago Roses.

Rosa Gallica officinalis, Apothecary's rose. I grew this in Atlanta but left it behind. Worth growing for historical purposes.
