One of my concerns was that the roses would not be blooming anymore in England when we would time our vacation in the first two weeks of July (usually we always go in June). Luckily I was wrong! Some of them are beyond their prime, others seem to be at their peak or a little beyond, and some are gone over, but there are still many to see and enjoy. I wonder if they had a very cold spring in England this year and that is the reason the roses are still blooming relatively profusely? Or do some re-bloom already? Maybe my British followers can enlighten me? Whatever the reasons are I am beyond happy that the roses are still blooming here. After all, an English garden/cottage garden without a flowering rose just doesn’t seem right. And who doesn’t want to see a climbing rose conquering an old cottage? I am sharing in this post my favorite rose that I saw today. Its dark burgundy red color was so deep and velvety in reality, but unfortunately my camera wasn’t fully able to capture it properly. The rose still looks amazing, doesn’t it? I guess, it is a David Austin rose, maybe Munstead Wood? Would you rose lovers out there agree? Or do you have any other suggestions what variety this could be? Wishing you all a lovely rest of the Monday and my American followers a wonderful and safe 4th of July celebration. #organicgardendreams #rose #roses #redrose #redroses #cottagegarden #cottagegardenstyle #rosephotography #flowerphotography #rosesofinstagram #roselover #rosegarden #englishgardens #englishgardens #cottagecore #darkredrose #darkredroses #fortheloveofroses #cottagegardens #rosegarden #england #cotswolds #cotswoldslife #englishrose #englishroses #davidaustinroses #davidaustinrose #cottageflowers #bloom #flower (at Castle Combe) https://www.instagram.com/p/CfmeeOwq96R/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
