Ballerina and friend

Ballerina is a favorite of mine. It reminds me of apple blossoms. Not too far from it
is a flower carpet rose that was so happy I didn't have the heart to get rid of it.
So I decided to see if it would climb instead of sprawl. Why not? If it can go out, it can go up, right?
Here they are now. Due to the cold, the purple Jackmani clematis hasn't really opened yet. Usually they all bloom together.
This is outside my kitchen window in a narrow side yard that gets only midday sun. It works.

This shot of your roses is one that I keep going back to over and over again, since I saved it a while back. I love the tripod you built. It's perfect for showing off those roses.

Yes,Renee, I do post a photo of it each spring. I really like the combination. Too bad the clematis isn't in full bloom yet. What an odd year!

Looks like a painting on an easel.
Lovely.

Yeah - Inga is right - it does look like a painting on an easel. How cool is that!

I've always wanted Ballerina. It's the only single I would ever get, since I love the stuffed look. There's just something about Ballerina - so airy and graceful.

Your first picture is really inspired. You are an artist!!

Thank you sooo much!!

Carol
