| | | Roses....
Ah well, at least I've got roses up on the computer screen, even if the last ones in the garden have about had it!
I'm thinking photo 1. is two different colours of Dog-rose, Rosa canina?
But photo 2. I haven't a clue. Not even sure whether its a wild rose or a cultivar - it was growing through the hedge round a garden  Suggestions, id please...

Possibly your 2nd one is Field Rose - Rosa arvensis. Am not an expert though, so maybe one will be along soon and confirm?

Rose no.2 looks to me like Rosa x alba (the White Rose of York).
It is thought to be a hybrid of R.gallica and R.canina.
I hope this helps?

Thanks to you both for your replies - I'd wondered Field Rose but wasn't sure.
I tried to check out the Rosa x alba (the White Rose of York) but could only find named double-flowered forms......will keep looking for an illustration to compare with.... |

This still doesn't mean that I am correct but it is fun doing the research.
