In A Vase On Monday – ‘New Dawn’

Rosa 'New Dawn'

Rosa ‘New Dawn’

My vase this week features Rosa ‘New Dawn’ nestled amid chartreuse Lady’s Mantle (Alchemilla mollis), with delicate accents of pink Heuchera ‘Lime Rickey’ flowers and tendrils of grape vine (Vitis).

Thanks to Cathy at Rambling In the Garden, who hosts a weekly meme to showcase arrangements created from our gardens. Wander over to see what gardeners all over the world are arranging this week.

    This is wild and lovely and old fashioned looking. I love the untamed-ness of it.

    Such a subtle and beatiful rose.

  3. New Dawn is one of my favorite roses and one I haven’t seen in a long while. My neighbor in Colorado grew them and I loved to look at them from my bedroom window. I don’t have the touch for growing roses, but it’s nice to admire others efforts. The arrangement is lovely. Blessings, Sarah

    How delicate and pretty. Pure summer feeling! 🙂

  5. That says Summer to me – romantic!

  6. How very dainty. I wouldn’t have thought the Alchemilla’s acidy colour would work with such a subtle rose but the addition of the stronger colour from the Heuchera pulls the trio together perfectly and the arrangement works so well. Gorgeous!

  7. Rose and Alchemilla, two of my favourite combinations and such a beautiful vintage looking rose

  8. This time against a perfect background

    I love this rose, and always look out for it growing up walls. Such a lovely tone of pink, and you have chosen just the right plants and flowers to complement this arrangement.

    A perfect name for such a delicately colored rose. Exquisite bouquet. I’ll just need to imagine the scent!

  11. Brenda's avatar Brenda says:

    I planted a New Dawn against our fence this spring and it’s already giving me lovely flowers. What a gorgeous rose.

  12. Cathy's avatar Cathy says:

    I am really appreciating my New Dawn this year and pairing it with alchemilla works so well – thanks for sharing it Eliza

    Pretty enough for a bride.

  14. Again a nice bouquet. Roses are simply beautiful at this time of the year. (Suzanne)

    Beautiful combination Eliza.

    I used to dream of growing New Dawn, but roses are not a plant I’ve have luck with and so I don’t grow them. So your bouquet is a pleasure to see. Lovely.

    Such a beautiful bouquet, Eliza. I agree with Lisa — it’s “wild and lovely and old fashioned looking.” Like something from another era.

    Sweet and delicate. Looks lovely with the fabric pattern behind in the first picture.

    Frothy and beautiful, Eliza! Lady’s mantle is yet another of those plants I wish I could grow. (I tried.)

    You could hardly find better companions for those beautiful New Dawn roses! A perfect vintage composition.

  21. Murtagh's Meadow's avatar Murtagh's Meadow says:

    Love the delicate colour combinations.

  22. The doily/runner really makes this feel so delicate. Beautiful, as always.

  23. Nothing better than New Dawn with a little chartreuse?! Summer in a container, enjoy.

  24. ‘New Dawn’ is a beauty – I really love the flat-ish, almost saucer shape it has, rather different and most elegant. The heuchera flowers make the whole affair quite dreamlike.

  25. Patsi's avatar Patsi says:

    Flowers and Lace…can’t get much better than that. Lovely !

  26. Beautiful. The heuchera adds layers of colour and lightness.

  27. Beautiful arrangement set off by the lace!

  28. Christy B's avatar Christy B says:

    This arrangement is so feminine 🙂 I like it!

  29. Brian Skeys's avatar Brian Skeys says:

    It is one of THE great roses.

  30. Kathy Sturr's avatar Kathy Sturr says:

    What a beautiful, dainty, ladies’ arrangement Eliza! I think lace and see you have paired it with your vase. Wonderful!

    • Eliza Waters's avatar Eliza Waters says:

      Thank you, Kathy. It all worked out photographing inside in the morning. I usually leave it too late and there isn’t good interior lighting, thus out on the deck shots.

  31. New Dawn is a beauty Eliza which you have shown brilliantly.

  32. Micheal K's avatar MK says:

    Wowie-zowie! It has a Laura Ashley feel.

  33. Such a beautiful antique appeal…

  34. Those roses are so classically beautiful, Eliza. A stunning arrangement and photo. 🙂

  35. Eliza, your arrangement captures the essence of romance – beautiful!

  36. What an absolutely beautiful rose, in that fresh pale pink with the slightly darker accents of heuchera and the fizz of lady’s mantle. Very restrained and elegant – love it!
