| TNY, you've got some beautiful roses right now! I am enamored by Koko Loco color! Your Toad Lily is very cute! Marina |
|
| I enjoyed those so much. My roses have fried for months and now are shivering in the rain and chilly air--so sad! It's a joy to see so many beautiful roses like yours in healthy bloom. Kate |

| Great pics, lovely roses. I really like the fragrance of Edina. I like the Toad Lily as well, that's neat. |

| Looks indeed that you had a very good week in terms of your blooming roses. I especially love Edina, a rose that is not seen that often. John F. Kennedy has produced a flower with star quality for you. This rose is not that easy to grow but when it flowers properly than it is really fabulous. The Toad lily is lovely! Thanks for sharing!

| Thanks for all the great comments on the roses...and my tiny Toad Lily too! You know, I don't think I've ever actually bent down and smelled Edina...I'll have to do that tomorrow! I guess I'm always worried my nosey neighbor (who probably already thinks I'm a loon for having all these roses), will think so even more if he catches me sticking my nose into them! lol..then again...who cares! :) And Christina, I have to confess, as great of bloom s as JFK is putting out this year (his legs are bald as can be!!) |

| Koko Loco is especially well photographed, with good choice of perspective and distance. |
|
| Lovely photos. I haven't seen Jacqueline du Pre, for a while and had forgotten her long "eye lashes". |
|
| All beauties, Tammy! I like the looks of both Miss Prissy and Summer Night a lot! |
|
| OOOOoooo these are all GORGEOUS Tammy! |
