Ebb Tide is quite wonderfull!  Havn't seen it over here, but it may well have a different name in Germany.  Blue Moon is Sissy over here.

I have some buds coming in the garden, but most roses are well over for me.   :'(

The roses here in the southern hemisphere are all leafing up - it is such a lovely time of the year where everything is new and fresh. Apple green leaves on Quatre Saisons, the new redpink growth on teas and and the burgundy of some of the HTs. We can now cut away dead wood or stems now that they are sprouting on some roses that are hard to tell such as rugosas. How many times have you cut away a section that you thought was dead to find that it was still alive at the end?

A favourite of ours (and obviously of the previous owner of our place as she planted all the ones we have) is "Lorraine Lee" raised in Australia by Alister Clark. The perfume is wonderful and in warmer places like Melbourne it flowers throughout the winter, but here is only hitting its straps now.

ARe your photos not showing the coppery colours too - seems too pink.
