My favorite couple is coming in to my job tonight, so I cut this impromptu bouquet. There are others blooming in the garden, but after last night's rain, these were the best I could find.

In the vase are:

Abraham Darby 1985
Georg Arends 1910
Golden Buddha 2005
Golden Celebration 1992
Happy Child 1993
Lady Hillingdon 1910
Marie Pavie 1888
Mme de Sevigne 1874
Mme Dore 1863
Rose du Roi (original) 1812
Sophie's Perpetual 1920s
Souvenir de la Malmaison 1843
Souvenir de Victor Landeau 1890
Tamora 1983
The Prince 1990
Velvet Fragrance 1988

Some are open, others are still just buds.
