    Hi, Harold!! :-) What a treat it is to see all these roses on this VERY windy day here. Thank you so much, and I hope that your busy absence from us has been due to pleasant things going on in your life. :~)

    Take care.

    Every time I see Cherry Parfait I just drool. Thanks for the wonderful photos of the whole shrub. It gives me a much better idea of where I could put that particular rose.

    Gorgeous Harold! What a wonderful rosy treat to see! I just love your Foolish Pleasure and Climbing America. I am ordering a 2nd one from Roses Unlimited, because my other one absolutely hated being overwintered in my garage and the severe, bitterly cold Kansas winter we got, so I am planting the new one in a show-off pot and the other one in a lesser corner of the garden, lol where it can pout and sulk as much as it wants to, haha!

    Oooh - I love your siberian iris - lovely, lovely color!!!

    I'm with you, I find my roses do TONS better grown in pots.

    Your enchanted evening is a bit on the pink side. I wonder why - mine is definitely lavender (well not now - just sticks).

    Well, I've ordered Purple Passion and Teasing Georgia - so it's nice to see how floriferous they can be!!!

    Your roses are ALL stunning. I really enjoyed looking at this post. Thanks for the color on such a snowy day here.
