Have you seen roses that look like this in a private garden?

I took this picture while walking my dogs.

I have not seen such a bush quite as beautiful as this one before in an ordinary suburban garden.

By the time I took the photo, a few were beginning to dry out, however the display was still stunning.

Next to this bush was a yellow one not quite as prolific but also beautiful.

And they smell delightful also.

I do not know how the owner can resist picking them and putting them in a vase.

Hi Finy, My reply to this & to you, is at the bottom of these answers. I meant to put the reply to your answer, HERE, not own there.

Come mid summer I'll get a photo of ours for you, they're spectacular! We have lots of miniature roses (white, red / orange, pink, and crimson) and a tropical sunrise that is pink and orange, and an ice and fire that is white with hot pink tips, and then one giant pink rosebush. Our front garden comes alive with them, they're so beautiful!

The pic is an ice and fire just as it started opening

Stunning!

Beautiful. I love the ones that are 2/3 colours on the 1 rose, & even so much better if they have a perfume, Meggf.

Yes, we have several in our garden, though we won't know until next spring how well they have survived six years of tenants in our house... we had a truly beautiful climbing rose that grew up a very tall holly tree but that has been ripped out, no idea why. The other bushes are still there but look rather leggy.
My mother also has some glorious rose bushes and there are lots of English gardens I can think of that feature them. They are very popular here!

Lucky me! I have the joy of seeing beautiful roses bloom all year through here in Townsville. I pick some every single day to enjoy indoors and they are so much nicer than bought ones,which tend to have the scent bred out of them in favour of shape and colour!! I am actually having the most success with the Old English Varieties which smell positively delicious!!!

I love roses and haven't seen roses like that ever! The smell makes me want to smoosh them in my face eat them! I know that sounds crazy, it's just an urge I have when faced with a beautiful fragrant bunch.

Yes - my parents have beautiful rose bushes in their garden

My grandparents roses. But never since.

Yes - back home in Scotland we had a beautiful rose garden at the front of the house. The rose bushes were prolific - I think because the soil there was perfect for roses. We had a profusion of colours and they looked fabulous at the height of summer.

The street we have to walk down, from the station to a daughter's house in Melbourne, has masses of rose bushes in the gardens. I always smell them, as I walk past them, but many of them don't have a perfume. They're mostly red or white ones.

No Finy, I don't usually see as many on the 1 bush. I've never grown roses, because we don't have enough sunlight for them, but if I did grow them, I'd only buy the 2 toned smelly ones! The rest of my answer is down below!
