Thank you, Paul, for this feast for the eyes. I'm always so happy to see your photos because they're composed artfully and you capture the colors perfectly. Smiling

Thanks ZuZu.....I hesitate sometimes showing pictures of familiar faces but justify it to myself by thinking that some one new is looking who will be interested. It is raining here today which I love and you sweet comment brightened up my mood.

Paul........

Please do keep posting your beautiful photos. These roses are going to be harder to find in the coming years as many nurseries that used to carry them have closed.

I don't have room for many more roses, so I am very picky about which ones I'll be looking for to fill a couple of blank spots, so I am always looking for photos and information about roses.

Thank you for sharing.

Smiles,
Lyn
I'd rather weed than dust ... the weeds stay gone longer.

I have about 70 mature roses, mostly HTs and at this point in my life I don't expect to plant another rose but just enjoy those I have. So when I take pictures often its of the ones in my yard that have which are familiar. I do look at nurseries and in neighborhood yards but often the ones in others gardens are not identified. Some are easy to ID. Others not. Thanks for your kind comments.
