New Roses' Blooms

Hey, Utah--

Lookie lookie lookie what is blooming for us!! The newest roses you sent as a wedding present, or a birthday present, or a just-because present (frankly, I can't remember why you sent them), are blooming!

The first photo is the Graham Thomas rose, which opened up yesterday, late. Soon we will have to train it up around the newly painted column on the front porch. Exciting!

This is the first bud of the Crown Princess Margareta of Sweden. Fitting, since Crown Princess Victoria of Sweden just wed over the weekend. (dude--check out her tiara! gorgeous!)


The third rose, Shropshire Lad, isn't even budding yet. It is too busy growing! It is about a 3 feet tall now. No photos of that one, just thought I would report.

Thanks for making our garden beautious!

Awesome! Did you smellerate Graham Thomas? I dunno about the others, but GT smells like honeysuckle. It's nice.
