    What garden? All I see is snow out there (but it covers up the mess). Now on to the pie baking. So Happy Thanksgiving to all of you. Stay safe and happy, and full of whatever wonderful food you choose to eat. Diane

    Happy Thanksgiving! Here's the colorful and very fragrant rose, "Life of the Party" to celebrate the holiday (Tom Carruth, 2017, Weeks Roses).

    Happy Thanksgiving!!! I hope you all are able to enjoy the holiday despite the challenges right now. Here is a bloom of Blue Girl from this morning (the picture making her look more pink rather than the pale blue/lavender she is).

    Adorable! Happy Thanksgiving everyone. I hope you are all able to eat lots of Pie. Going for a run here soon then it's time to Nosh. :-)

    Beautiful winter wonderland! You can save that one for Christmas too. :-)

    It's been snowing off and on, but it melts in between storms. This is at the end of my driveway. Those scruffy old pines look so much better laden with snow.

    Erasmus, your 'pets' are as cute as can be. They all have expressions.

    Dave, I hope I can find Blue Girl locally. If she does ok in 6a, she might survive here.

    Ann, you've already convinced me to get Life of the Party! You can stop now! If mine isn't this wonderful, I"ll be disappointed.

    Ben, Tahitian Sunset is inching her way onto my list. The pink edge is the clincher.

    Seil, Pumpkin Patch has those pink edges, too. I'm a goner for those.

    Sheila, I hope your Jello set up, but I bet it was delicious either way.

    Vap, I'm impressed. I was a lazy bum all day.

    My orange Jello and green bean casserole turned out, but my husband's turkey and 5 pies stole the day. Weather a little different here.

    The guy's a keeper! And the view lovely!

    So glad everyone had as Happy Thanksgiving! Sheila, I am glad your jello turned out great! Melissa I am thankful for everyone on this thread. I am glad you have loved it. Diane I am sorry you are covered with snow but I am sure it's beautiful. I know you look forward to spring.

    Ann, I'm here again, taking another look at Life of the Party. I can't get enough. Do you recommend own root or grafted? I realize our conditions are different. Did yours take off right away, or have a slow beginning? I did not like that rose the first time I saw it, now I want it in multiples. You are such a quiet enabler. All you have to do is post a pic.

    Hope everyone had a beautiful and safe Thanksgiving. I made Turkey with cornbread stuffing and gravy, plus mashed potatoes, not too sweet cranberry sauce with cinnamon and cloves and pumpkin and apple pies. Wow Shelia! What a spread... and those pies look amazing! He’s a keeper :-)

    Hi flowers- Mine is a tree standard that got a slow start but that seems to be the norm for standards in my garden. So I’m not sure what to recommend. It seems to bloom in cycles with lots of blooms in each cycle. In your climate a grafted one might be better. Sorry for the enabling!

    Thanks, Ann. Don't be sorry, I'm not. I'm thinking grafted, too.

    Happy post-Thanksgiving weekend, everyone! I was so grateful for my roses during this trying year, and thankful for all of the rose growing advice I’ve learned from this forum over the last few years!

    I was looking through my photos for an orange rose to share - here’s a picture of Dame Judi Dench, from early October:

    Cyndita, your Dame Judi Dench is gorgeous! 🥰

    Thank you, sultry-jasmine-nights!!! I know DJD didn’t do well for a lot of people here in the US - I just got lucky, in that it seems to like my coastal climate.

    I am late, but happy thanksgiving!! Thankful to people who give their years of knowledge and advice, :) this hobby (now a lifestyle HAHA) has helped me through a lot and for the past few years everyone here on Houzz has helped me learn and G R O W!! 🥴
