GREAT COMBO!

(BTW ... "Rose Letter" is out!)

Yay! I can expect something pleasant to come soon in the mail.

Great photos Shebabee!

Beautiful!

Thank you, all! They make me so happy. They are all doing so much better this year, foliage is much better than normal, and they're more mature with lots more blooms than before. Spending some time with them each day is a huge help to my state of mind during this insane time we are living in -- the roses and my cat.

Melissa, hah, YOU have an amazing garden -- mine is not much of a garden -- it's mostly a pot ghetto. It is a small and narrow bed, running along the chain link fence, with shade cast by buildings on 3 sides, lots of fog, no morning sun and then sometimes some hot western sun. I am amazed at how resilient the roses are and how they accommodate the bad site.

My problem now is that they ARE doing well and getting too big for me to keep them all. There were several that were doing badly for a few years and I was going to try to give them away -- but they are now doing so much better that I don't want to!

Thanks again, all, for admiring my babies. There will be more photos -- I can't stop myself from taking pics of them, although I can't get good color for some of them.
