I miss my roses! I so love to tour the garden and see all the beautiful pinks of the 20 some rose bushes I have. When they were planted, I put name tags for each one. But the sun faded the tags so I no longer know the proper name for each one. However that in no way diminishes their beauty, I have Wife of Bath, Isn't that a charming name? It could be the one below.
I have some David Austin roses, Graham Thomas,double blooms in magnificent shades of yellow. Also Abraham Darby,very fragrant, in rich shades of apricot. Neither of these are pictured here.
I also have Eden rose, it is of the large flowered climbing variety. A beautiful blend of pastel pinks, creams and just the barest touch of the palest green at the base in the new buds. This is by far my favorite, it is the rose pictured in my header. Those are just a few of my roses, I think they are just about the most beautiful, and varied flower created. I must not be alone, as so many blogs I visit include the word Rose in them. Spring is just a hop away, and I can get started in the garden and get ready for the summers blooms. TTFN

I am looking at my roses right now . We are having a drought but they are doing OK for I use my washing water on them when they look floppy.
I used to have wife of bath but it was not too good in my garden in Australia.
Do you have Fragrant Cloud? Its a reddy orange but the perfume!!
Hey Wanda, The David Austin roses are the most awesome, aren't they? I plan to grow some of the most fragrant varieties and make Rose Petal jelly and jam!
Thanks so much for visiting me! To answer your question that you left on my blog…The lady with the terminal illness believes that she has an eternal painless, tearless spiritual existance yet to come...thus, "the best is yet to come". And she needs that fork for the "angel cake" she'll be served! Well, you'd think so, right!?
Come visit again real soon,
Hugs, Stephanie
