We're a week or more away from the peak of the first flush but as of
yesterday, I've got rose blooms! It's a great time of year here in
Maryland. I know some of you have been enjoying roses in bloom for
weeks but they are just getting started here and I cannot wait. The
rugosa 'Blanc Double de Coubert', the climbing Bourbon 'Zepherine
Drouhin' and David Austin's 'Mary Rose' .................
===========================
I know the excitement. Our mini roses just started to bloom last week!
Plus an old antique rose of some kind the man at Lowe's sold us for $2.00
because the tag was gone.

Roze....
