Old Garden Roses

I am updating and moving the old garden rose pages.
The first is Alba Maxima, it may not repeat but the blooming period does last about a month.
I have enough English roses and grandiflora for the rest of the season.

Indian Chief

Irises

Indian Chief is one of my oldest irises.
One of the first passalong plant I received after I moved to my present home.
I never featured it before even though I love this iris colours.

The shades are often described as deep red for the falls.
As an artist, I see the falls as dark fuchsia.
The standards, moderate crimson.
The two go very well together.

Late Lilac

Nice soft coloured tall bearded iris.
Photo shows white beard tipped orange.
