This spring I decided to document as many rose varieties I could find in my parent’s rose gardens. I’ve made a few photographs of them in the past, but I figured documenting them by name and variety (accurately) would be a good idea. Most of these roses fall into the categories of Rambler, Climbing, Old Garden, Shrub, Species, and David Austin’s English Roses. This is a sampling of those photographs – you can find all that I’ve made so far in my Roses Gallery.
New Dawn (Climbing Roses)
Rosa glauca – Red Leaved Rose (Species Rose)
Rosa rubiginosa Eglantine (Species Rose) was said to be Shakespeare’s favourite rose
Rosa rugosa – Fimbriata (Old Garden Roses)
