Purchased this summer, growing in a container on my deck in zone 5b! Each bloom so far has been a slightly different shade of pink/purple/blue, I love it!

I planted this George Vancouver on July 23rd of this year, it had just finished blooming at that time and I gave it a good deadhead once I got it home & planted... Now it is ready to pop out 30+ fresh blooms before the season ends!

This little shrub had some real fungal damage when I picked it up at the nursery, I wasn't sure if it was even going to make it... But all new growth since has been healthy & lush, and now it is gracing the garden with a big show!

The shrub is planted in a larger perennial bed that I just created this year, and I have yet to clean up the edging and add more compost - waiting for the summer temps to dial down a bit more so it is more pleasant to do that work :)

Just curious what this could be on a few leaves of my new George Vancouver rose... It didn't seem to be there when I took it home, and has spread over the last week or so.

Any idea what I should treat it with?

I gave it a little spray of copper fungicide to start, which is why the leaves look shiny lol. I hope that's okay....!

Thanks in advance for your help ☺️

Started this watermelon from seed in late April (Zone 5b). Variety is called 'Sugar Baby'.

I tried to grow watermelon last year but I abandoned them once the summer draught hit. This year has been a lot cooler with more rain, so finally I get to see some little watermelons appear! Can't wait to see them grow!

I have been eyeing this one up at our local greenhouse for a while now, I just love this shade of pink!! 🩷 supposed to be hardy to our Canadian winters here in Zone 5b.

Right now I have it set in a little bed I just created by our front doorstep, but I'm not 100% sure it will stay there... I find choosing a good location really tough! This is the third rose I have bought this year, I think a new addiction has started.... 😅

My first time successfully growing them 🩷 started them in April and they finally bloomed the start of July!

I planted this rose in late May, and it has finally come into bloom in the last week - it is so lovely!! It still has a few more blooms left to open as well. I can't wait to watch it grow over the next few years!

Was not familiar with polyantha roses until I met this one! Just planted her yesterday and plan to pair her with a small standard lilac beside the walkway to our front door, along with some spring & summer bulbs. She's cute 💜

After doing more searching for polyantha roses, I really fell in love with The Fairy 🩷 if anyone has photos of theirs I would love to see them! Or any other polyantha rose you love!

I planted my first rose bush this spring - a Tequila Supreme (it has five buds coming in so far!). I check it pretty much every 1-2 days, and today is the first time I've noted these dots on two of the leaves.

It has been *very* rainy and cool in my climate the last few weeks, based on what I've read that means it could be prime conditions for black spot. I just wanted to check with some of you rose pros to see what your thoughts are.

I'd like to start treating it right away if I can! Hopefully I have caught it early (if it is indeed black spot)

Thank you! 🩷
