June is Rose Month! Charles de Mills

 This is the rose that got me into old garden roses. It is a Gallica rose. The breeder and origin of this roses is unfortunately lost to time. Due to the heat it wound up being pinker in Missouri than it was in Oregon where I first grew it. A rose worth having, and my favorite rose. You can see the video here:

June is Rose Month! Frau Karl Druschki

Frau Karl Druschki is a white Hybrid Perpetual rose. It is probably one of, if not the best, known and commonly grown Hybrid Perpetuals. Going through older rose texts, Hybrid Perpetuals were the "it" class prior to Hybrid Teas, and were reportedly one of the parents of the the Hybrid Tea class. You can see the video here:

June is Rose Month! Mel's Heritage

I really think that this rose would do better on the west side of my house instead of the east side. I does produce some darker blooms but mostly the lighter blooms. Also if it had more sun it would probably bloom more often. It cam through the winter with little damage. You can see the video here:

June is Rose Month! Evelyn

Another David Austin rose. I have had it since Sept of 2021 and at least in my yard it seems to be just a decent rose. She died all the way to the ground during the winter but came back decently. I would say that a rose that you could easily replace Evelyn with is Bliss Parfuma. You can see the video here:
