Default First Blooms!

It's a tie between Rio Samba and Sombrueil!

Looked out of an upstairs window to see the first spot of
color in the back, ran down and there Rio Samba was!! Fragrant
and sunny, this rose has the perfect ht form and the perfect
petal substance-not too thick or thin.

Thought that was the only one but then I looked up to see
that Sombreuil's first blooms are 12 feet up in the hollies!
Gorgeous fragrant many-petaled saucer-shaped blooms.

Then, today: Pat Austin, Abraham Darby, Tradescant and
a single perfect Tiffany bloom. Yippeee!
