Octavia Hill Rose
My roses are blooming. All of them are blooming! Come visit my backyard and smell their sweet perfume. It’s heavenly.
Three of my rose bushes are taller than I am and they are just covered with scented spring buds and blooms. It’s gorgeous! There’s white ones, pale yellow ones, rich yellow ones, pink ones, pink ones, pink ones, and red ones!
I went out and finally did some work in my garden yesterday. My back is now aching! It as nice to be surrounded by such beauty and scent. My lavender is just about ready to bloom too and I was working with it to straighten it out and the scent of lavender mingled with the beautiful rose scents. Ahhhhh! I must bottle that scent for winter!
The photo above is not this years. I did take some photos while I was out but I haven’t transfered them to my computer yet. Just wait until you see them!
Sadly I lost some roses this winter. You can find out which ones on As the Garden Grows.

I joined the Green Thumb but the code? It posts a blogroll, not what I expected. I thought I would have a nice graphic happening.
I joined anyway — mit der pansies.
