Found my camera, posting a few Spring pics.

It appears that posting pics is a bit different since houzz took over gardenweb. Anyway, here are a few of the roses that have started blooming in my yard in Lawrence, KS.

Anne-Marie de Montravel

Sophie's Perpetual

Sappho

The miniature, Sweet Fairy.

and finally, a band I recently got labeled Cupid, but which obviously isn't.....

Wow, those pics took a looooong time to upload. I liked it much better when I could just link from my photobucket account, but when I tried that it didn't work at all. Anyway, I will try to post some more pics as soon as more roses start opening up.

Looking good, KS greenman. Down here in southern Kansas, my roses are just beginning to open also--a bloom here, a bloom there. Exception, my rugosa (Fru Dagmar) is blooming all over--for the first time in her sojourn in my garden. I hope to get a good picture later today when the light isn't so intense out there.

Sappho and Sophie's Perpetual are particularly charming in those pictures.

Condesa de Sástago

Rotkäppchen--not the best example of its blossoms, but the first this season not ruined by bugs. :(

Gorgeous blooms, KSGreenman. I love how you are growing Sophie's Perpetual. Very, very nice.

I used to live in Lawrence many moons ago. I first saw Joe Pyeweeds in a friend's garden there (she was from the East Coast). They were backlit against a Kansas sunset......and my screen name is in tribute to that memory.
