Marcy got me longing for some blooming flowers so I am going to post a couple of pics of some of my roses from this past season.

This is climbing Don Juan. We planted two of them--one on either side of the arbor. They don't have a lot of fragrance--at least I don't think they do, but DH says they smell like a rose to him. LOL They make big beautiful flowers and I can hardly wait until they get the arbor and side fences covered this next season. However, the thorns are HUGE so we really have to be careful when picking off leaves that might have black spot, etc.
