Not many roses. Mrs. J. had these five roses crammed into an 8" bed out in front of the house. I widened the bed to 3' and took out all of the companion plants to give the roses room to grow. Her niece told me that she used to go out every night and cover the roses with bird netting to protect them from the deer. She was in her 90s when I bought the house and couldn't do that for many years, so the deer pruned them regularly. She did love her roses.

Then there are two yellow minis along on side of the back of the house that are not Ralph Moore or Dee Bennett Roses and a wonderful, but neglected 'Tropicana'.

I brought a few roses with me and Sequoia gifted me with about 100 roses as a housewarming gift. Many of those were not heat tolerant enough for this garden, so I gave them away to people who had more shade than I do and kept the rest.

I don't really need to know the name of the rose for myself, but I would like to add photos to the right db page. Please do look.

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