Double Delight rose
Not this year’s rose, but taken at this time of year, one of my top fave roses, the Double Delight. Strong, spicy, intense fragrance and usually a very strong, vigorous bush. I’ve got to get out there and fertilize!

The Double Delight was our favorite rose when we used to garden (in Oregon) — and it smells good, like a rose is supposed to! Lovely photo!
Beautiful!
I played too. Mine are here and here.

Double Delight is one of our favorites, too. The fragrance is absolutely intoxicating.

I love the light through the petals
So soft shades of pink… And with the blue of the sky in the background : priceless.
