| Absolutely fantastic, Jim, seeing your rose garden flourish! The roses look so healthy and vibrant, and you do Organics PROUD! They are marvelous! Candy is looking so cute, good to see her! |

| Hi Jim, I just love how you put your pictures in sequence to show us how your roses have grown-up..lol. Its great! and your roses look so healthy and growing beautifully, Precious Platium is such a good looking rose, I bet by next summer it will be well over 6ft. Thanks so much for sharing these with us. |

| Jim, I freaked out when I saw the first picture. I hadn't yet scrolled down to see that it was a progression over time, and I misread the date. Thought that you had snow on October 2nd...oh my! What a very nice series of pictures. --Laura |

Jim,
It is really fun to see how your roses have grown. That 1st picture kind of freaks me out too. It's coming way too soon.

Last year (2009) we got 2" of snow on Oct 15th. This year, no snow that early. We have had some frosts when over-night temps reached 34 degrees several times.
Right now we are going through a warm period. So, our roses are still blooming, I just haven't taken any recent pics.
I might do that tomorrow. Thanks everyone! |

| Thanks for all of these photos, Jim. Your threads are always so fun! This fall and winter I'd love to skip the cold temperatures, fierce winds, ice, and snow--or maybe vacation during that time in a gentler local. lol Nah, that's most likely not gonna happen. :P Take good care, my friend, and may God Bless you and yours!! :) Debbie |

Well, went out to take more pics today and our rose blooms look really shabby, so, not much to photograph. lol.
I did get 2 pics of our cat.

| I had some beautiful blooms coming in on Sunday, then that low-pressure catastrophe hit us. All of the petals are all over Illinois right now. I'm afraid it's going to be too cold very soon for the remaining buds to open. |

The cold, then warm weather here is playing havoc on blooms. lol. We are about to go into colder night-time temps again. Friday nights expected low is 30 degrees.
So, I do not expect much more in the way of blooms. Rose leaves here are starting to shed & fall also. |
Livin Easy
| | |
I should state though that Livin Easy in it's first year is still going strong with blooms. They do not look the best, but, neverless it has 15 blooms & more buds.
I was very surprised to see it have blooms most of September & all of October so far. It's doesn't seem as effected by the cold weather as our other roses.
I'm anxious to see how it rebounds after a cold winter though. |

| We have our first freeze warning for tonight. I didn't lose any canes in the 50+ mph winds we had this week, which surprised me. I probably won't be able to assess what remains until the weekend, since it's dark when I go to work in the morning & dark when I get home. Bummer; the cooler temps and shallower angle of the sun was really bringing out the best colors in most of the blooms. |

We are getting high winds today, which is wrecking havoc on the blooms & leaves. lol
And I did notice some crossing canes I will need to deal with. Yes, the colors are very bright here too & color is holding longer. |
