I can't get anything done. I just keep touring the rose garden looking for more blooms to open. Morning tours, midday tours, afternoon tours, etc. I am sure that all of you can relate to that. Who wants to do housework anyway. Spring Cleaning is highly overrated.

Here are a few from yesterday. Hope they show up O.K. It has been a long time since I tried to post pictures and my memory often fails me.

Belle Story

Guy de Maupassant (I think they changed the name to Seduction a few years ago.)

Pretty Jessica

Pop Warner

Lucky you for so much blooming! And for living in New Orleans. Yes, I do those walks all the time, but it is drizzling this morning. Love your photos!

Just beautiful! Would like one of each! I do a garden walk at least twice daily, myself...and would probably do more except for a pesky thing called work.

I will never confess how many tours I take of my garden looking for new roses in bloom, but it's definitely more than a couple times a day!!!!!!! LOL

Your pink roses are all so lovely that I would hate to have to pick out which one I like best.

Delightful photos. Pop Warner looks, almost, translucent.
Guy de Maupassant looks so lovely with it's satellite buds surrounding it.

They're all gorgeous, but your Belle Story is especially beautiful. But then so is Guy and Pretty Jessica. I have a baby PJ and am eagerly waiting for its first bloom to open. Thanks for the rose treat!

Droool. Gasp. Wow!!

Those are incredibly beautiful. Especially Guy, PJ and Belle. I could just swoon.

I had Guy during my first rose season (of course it died overwinter) and the smell was of green apples. But it never looked like yours. Wow!

I really, really enjoyed those!!
