They are all so lovely and healthy looking. Your love of roses shows in their beauty.

I agree, Moon. The photo with the comment 'other' is stunning!

That is indeed a beautiful Bougainvillea in that shot, Smiley. I was gonna ask Sohugosh if it was solely a rose garden...of if there were other plantings.

Red rose . Very common in my garden

The fragrance must be intoxicating...grin. Lots of weeds in the garden this spring, so lots of work to do. I enjoy taking a few minutes to see all the lovelies you have growing Sohugosh.

look at this funny flower.

How striking. Is that a bloom from a Rosa Rugosa? So cool the way the color splits the flower in half.

That's beautiful!

I have the same plant, different colored flowers, but here it is called Rose Moss, Portulaca ( I might have known that if i had enlarged the photo, GRIN)

I loved all kinds of flowers at first. But after I know a net about roses , I began to love roses so much. I even decide to be a gardener and start to build a rose nursery now. Can you give me some suggestions?

I love this rose very much. I was brought to me from my hometown.

Here is some info for you. Perhaps these links will help you decide how you want to go about putting together a business around roses.

Nice to see you back again, Sohugosh. How are things going with you? That is a lovely rose.

Good morning Sohugosh, and you too Moon! That is a lovely rose, it looks like it smells nice too!

Good morning Smiley....I agree, it looks like it should have that rich "old rose" fragrance.

Sohugosh your roses are beautiful.

I was just spending a few minutes looking at flower pictures and to my surprise stumbled on three dear friends, Moon, Linnie, and Smiley Mom. Hello to all of you and a very merry Christmas.

I loved your Cajon Gambler day lily Moon.

I'm here, too, Jim. I've been admiring all the roses and just wishing I could smell them.

Me too Pirl! Hello Jim, long time no 'see'! Happy Holidays to you and yours, everyone.

Hi pirl. Hi Smiley.

I'm just wishing I could raise roses like that. I was going to show my claim to fame with roses but can't find the photo.. Happens when you turn 70.

Merry Christmas.

Sohugosh, Best to you and yours for a joyous Christmas and prosperous New Year.

Hello Jim. So good to catch up with you again. Cajun Gambler is a showy daylily for sure. Heartfelt wishes to you, the lovely Jo and all your family for a blessed Christmas and a joyous, healthy happy new year.

Hi Pirl. Hope Christmas is filled with laughter and friends and family. Best wishes to you and yours.

Be warm and safe,

Moon

As the old Irish saying goes...I wish you, Jean, double what you wish for all of us.

Thanks Pirl...and may the road rise up to meet your feet and the Good Lord Bless and keep you. Merry Christmas

Thanks, Jean. At my age I'm happy if the road (or the gardens) remain level so I don't trip and fall!

Amen. I could not agree more.

Themoonhowl,
number 37 is the blue girl hybrid tea rose.

Thanks Bloomfly.

Good wishs to you Moon. The celebration is over now for the diet.
