The roses are almost all done blooming except a few stray blooms here and there.
The roses below are Bonica and they are actually still blooming quite abundantly.
I am pretty sure by morning however, they won't be looking too pretty since
our overnight temps will be in the twenties.
I wanted to share some of the last of the roses I have cut for the house and
a few photos of the garden this fall.
I think I will let the roses and garden do the talking in this post since it is
almost 11 PM and by this time of the day I don't have very much to say.
I sure hope that I will soon get back into the hang of posting something
of substance and have a little more time to do it.
I can't believe I am saying this, but I am almost looking forward to the
quiet days of winter!!!

This photo was taken two days ago and they are still covering
much of the bush under the oaks.
The Double Delight has one lone bloom left on it.

Incredible beautiful autumn roses! Your garden is absolutely beautiful and I love your autumn vignettes.

Dear June,
ReplyDeleteYour roses are SO pretty ...... I love the smaller ones { I love all if them ! } and, you have so many blooming in your garden still. We have about 8 growing over our rusty iron arch/gate, that's all !! But, there is still quite a lot of colour in our garden.... Japanese anenomes { they grow like weeds in our garden }, hydrangeas, cyclamen and, the trees are just turning here...... Autumn is such a pretty season.
It sounds as if you are really busy June ..... I hope that you are finding a little bit of time for yourself ?!! We went to London on Sunday for ' Tea at Claridges ' ..... very posh !! It was a Christmas present from last year and I had only just got around to booking it !!!! Tea in the afternoon is a very British thing and all of the big hotels do it and it's getting more and more popular. It started in the 1800's by the Duchess of Bedford who used to get hungry in the afternoons and had sandwiches and tea brought up to her bedroom. You get Champagne, little sandwiches { we had a second plate of those !! } scones, clotted cream and a selection of tiny little cakes plus the tea of course { you can choose from 40 different teas ! } Sorry, I've rambled on as usual !!
Enjoy the Autumn June. Much love. XXXX
I find it sad to see all the roses and flowers leaving us for the year. My flowers have really been hanging on though--and I guess I should be thankful for that. :) Your photography is beautiful!
ReplyDeleteI love your garden and your roses !! Thank you for these lovely photos. Have a great weekend - Hugs, Christine
ReplyDeleteWonderful roses, wonderful pictures!!
ReplyDeleteSending hugs, Ingrid
So pretty! We struggle to grow roses in subtropical Queensland (they get fungus like you wouldn't believe) so I'll just get my rose fix from your pretty pictures.
ReplyDeleteSoft, simple, serene...such a lovely way to begin my day...dreamy photographs, and a message of tranquility. Thank you most kindly for sharing the beauty of your enchanted world June!
ReplyDeleteSending hugs your way ...

It's amazing to me that even in the waning period of life, you can capture such breathtaking essence. LOVELY WORK MY DEAR! Anita
ReplyDeleteAnd hugs from here too my dear friend.
ReplyDeleteYour photo's are always such a delight to see and admire, your garden in fall is still beautiful.
Next Monday we are going to Florida for two weeks, such a shame Idaho is still far away. :)))
Hugs from Riet
Absolutely gorgeous as always.....thanks for the gorgeousness this morning.....
ReplyDeleteAutumn is upon us for sure! The seasons somehow create a fresh outlook for us... new things, a change of scenery, a change of decor, a change of wardrobe, a change in the air. I love the seasons and the different faces they have.
ReplyDeleteEnjoy your autumn!
Blessings, Edie Marie
Hi June,
ReplyDeleteI absolutely love those first 2 pics although they are are lovely.
We have had a hard frost a couple of nights lately so our garden is looking like it is time to do our fall cleanup.Like you I am looking forward to some quiet time snuggled indoors when the garden is set for winter.
Take care,
Carolyn
Always lovely flowers on your blog and I enjoy every one.
ReplyDeleteHaven't blogged much in a long time, going through some changes here and I'm trying to find myself again! Hope to be visiting more in the future.

Beautiful! Think we're all ready for a long winter's nap. Jan
ReplyDeleteAhhh, the roses of Fall! I have a small bouquet sitting by my computer. I may get one more before the frost sets in. I really need to get out in the garden and as they say "put it to rest for the winter". Yes, the quiet day, just don't make them to gray!! Hugs!!
ReplyDeleteThe roses are pretty either way and lovely photos!
ReplyDeleteJune your roses are so dreamy in the vases...
ReplyDeleteI am not surprised you are looking forward to a break in the Winter months. I can't imagine the hours you put into your beautiful garden.
We are further into the Fall weather here in Canada and we are enjoying the beauty of the changing leaves in the Valley.
Reading your new post has been a great start to my day so thank you! Take care my Blogging friend!
Hugs,
Wanda
Such wonderful photos...I love the faded charm of your garden; I think of the garden in fall as an elegant older lady; full of her own beauty. I have never planted Bonica roses but I have always wanted one, maybe this year.
ReplyDeleteOh my goodness June...your photo's take my breath away! The double delight rose is exquisite and I'm in love with your gorgeous little book! Thank you for sharing so much beauty with us:)
ReplyDeleteHi dear June. I can`t believe you still have so many pretty roses in your garden. It`s weeks since I had roses in my garden. Today it was a bit snow in the air, so soon the winter is here.
ReplyDeleteHave a beautiful weekend
Big hug from here
The roses look absolutely gorgeous, June! That is what I will miss during the long winter months...the fresh scent of just cut flowers brought inside.
ReplyDeleteI leave a lot of the seed heads for the birds until late in the fall. Then I cut them.
I hope you have a fun weekend.

BEAUTIFUL, June! Your phots speak louder than words ...
ReplyDeleteBEAUTIFUL , June! Your photos speak louder than words ...
ReplyDeleteAlways a great pleasure and blessing to have a view of your garden and home my dear friend. Love every detail of what you have so beautifully created.
ReplyDeletesending love from here
You always create the most beautiful vignettes with your lovely roses!! You even make the dried up flowers look pretty!
ReplyDeleteI'm one of those weird people who is always ready for winter, however, I don't think ours last as long as yours.

Oh June, your photos are fabulous and the highlights of you autumnal garden capture our eyes!
ReplyDeleteThank you for sharing and have a happy week end!
Hi, June, my dear friend,
ReplyDeleteYour garden is always a delight no matter the season. It is bittersweet when the roses start to fade, but we always know there is the promise of spring just around the corner. Sending my love to you~ Vicki
Putting the garden to bed in the fall always makes me sad. You have managed to make the fall garden look so pretty - and I'm not surprised.
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing the beauty.
These are wonderful portraits of the end of a season, June. I enjoyed each one, and love the mood you have created.
ReplyDeleteeven your Fall gardens are glorious! Is the rose your favourite? They are so beautiful in every stage of life.
ReplyDeleteYour pictures are beautiful, dear June. It's great that some flowers in your garden still bloom and bring you joy. I love those gorgeous rusty letters. What a great find!
ReplyDeleteHave a wonderful fall weekend!
Hugs,
Julia
Dear June!

Geli

ReplyDeleteYour pictures are beautiful and so is the end of your garden. All I have left are some poor little pansies - it's dropped down below freezing several times lately. Blessings, June, Diane
ReplyDeleteDear June,
ReplyDeleteAs always your roses and photos are beautiful. Great to see your Autumn garden and getting ready for its sleep period, you have captured it so well.
Wishing you a happy weekend
hugs
Carolyn
I adore roses in my house, in every room possible --- and even though they start to wilt, they are still beautiful to me. So your fading roses in the pitcher truly caught my eye, June. There's just some sort of peacefulness about them, isn't there? Hugs to you!
ReplyDeletexoxo laurie
Beautiful photos of your dreamy roses.Yes I agree I am looking forward to a little cold weather.My sinuses have been awful.I am getting a headache daily because of the mold in the air.

Hi Sweet June!
ReplyDeleteI just left you a comment but it didn't seem to go through!
So, here we go again :)
I love the last of the season roses! Such a pretty color palette.
I am heading out now to pick my limelights, we too are getting chilly at night and might even have snow by Wednesday!
I had to laugh, I too am looking forward to some down time that Winter brings! Who would have thought!
Hugs to you and always know...you are in my thoughts and prayers~always
love to you
Donna
Love your photos dear June. You have a wonderful talent!!! ‿ ◕✿

Hello darling June!
ReplyDeleteIt's been awhile since I've visited and posted {with going back to school and all}, but I have a free moment and wanted to see what some of my favorite bloggers are up to.
You never cease to amaze me with your inspiring photos. They are always breathtaking. Your blog has really been my muse in creating my own garden. Thank you for your ongoing inspiration.
I can't believe it's in the 20's there at night...it is still pretty warm during the days, so our roses bloom til winter. Of course, they don't look as lovely as yours. Love that shade of pink there!
Anyway, wishing you a lovely week!
XOXO's,
Jessie
Hi June,
ReplyDeleteIt has been a long time..sorry I am so behind.. but had to visit you.. everytime I visit your blog my heart just lightens up.. its magical.. as I have so much only Whites right now after visited your blog this morning want a pop off pink again.
Thank for your inspiration allways.
Love,
Rozmeen
Your roses are so beautiful! Enjoy the last of your pretty flowers and never feel guilty about some down time. I think winter is a gift to gardeners...a time to rest, a time to plan, and a time to be inspired. Plus snow covers everything so we don't think about what needs to be done until we're ready and recharged!! Have a great week. ~ Jenn :)
ReplyDeleteYour photos are like a glimpse of Heaven to me! Love, LOVE, your Roses! ♥
ReplyDeleteYou make everything look beautiful...because you are beautiful...inside and out! So nice to visit here again.:)
ReplyDeleteHi Sweetheart
ReplyDeleteLove the roses... mine are done and gone. Nice to see some here. Loved the photos of the dried up ones too. I Hope things are well with you, miss seeing all your lovely photos, will take some time to go back through the summer here...
Blessings today!

Yes dear June every season has it's good sites to look forward to also the quiet time of Winter. Your flower arrangements are always pure eye candy! Your Bonica still looks very pretty. Here too btw although I didn't get around to post about the fall garden yet. We had a wonderful warm and sunny Autumn day yesterday with a very warm night too, almost summery and if the leaves wouldn't fall all the time I could have believed it's still Summer. Well now there's still a lot of work to do in the garden before the first frost. Hedges to cut, leaves to rake and I bought lot's of new spring bulbs, especially two big bags of new Allium bulbs which are beggging me to plant them - hopefully this coming weekend.
ReplyDeleteSending you happy Fall garden wishes!
xoxo~ Carola
Adorable autumn roses,we have the same type of rose,enjoys in your flowers..
ReplyDeleteMany hugs my friend!

Ahhhh, the sweet roses. They are tough as nails and will bloom right into the first frost. Mine have a pretty big bloom in October. Your yard is amazing, and so are your photography skills! I love how you appreciate the flowers even when they are dried. The coneflowers look really neat still dry on the stem like that
