Disneyland Roses - In Bloom - Early October 2026

The Disneyland Roses (Floribunda roses) always take a back seat to the dahlias later in the growing season.  The roses come out of the gate strong, but they end of being sort-of forgotten starting in August and everything after.  But, that doesn't mean they don't stop producing blooms.  Here are a couple of photos showing what is probably the last flush of blooms on the thorny stems.  

These blooms continue to be really enchanting.  Almost peony-like at times.  They look best when they're a little bit more OPEN like this one below:

I fed these throughout the season with a 3-1 systemic granular.  The last time I fed them was in early September.  They'll go to sleep in the next few weeks.  

Here, below, is another one that is just opening.  The colors in the Fall are bright.  

And, here below, is one that is fully-open.  The yellow center is showing.  This will hold its petals for another week, then drop them. 

Last year (2025), these bloomed all the way until Thanksgiving.  YES!  Thanksgiving.  We'll see what happens in 2026.
