A rose by any other name...

This is a rose on Mom's property - Pa took the picture! Mom has 4 rose bushes - a white, a red, a dark pink and a light pink. All are doing quite well between the rain, the fertilizer and the generous application of deer repellent!

I'm glad, because I would like to have a rose garden like the one I had in Pennsylvania. We had over 20 varieties and they were a source of enjoyment for everyone around us. The lovely blooms which I gave to everyone and my own house....scented with bowls and vases of roses in every room. I liked it.
