Although it is supposedly Spring, it feels like
Summer. Our garden is dry, we have NO water
and yet, the roses give me presents every day
Climbing 'Black Boy' or to be politically correct,
'ethnically challenged individual' on pergola.
Fading Spring, one of the last Ranunculae
First bud on a hardy, bullet proof Rose:
'Bewitched', a bundle of perfumed, long
stemmed delight with long vase life.
Half open
and in full bloom,

ReplyDeleteIt's so funny that you talk about spring and summer while we here in the North are waiting for the winter to come! Anyway it's nice to think about the warmth you are having and most of all: the beautiful flowers you are sharing now, when nothing is growing here outdoors any more. Great photos!

"I don't know whether nice people tend to grow roses
or growing roses makes people nice."
Just so delightful! I especially like your photo of the poppy because of the curl on the petals and the way the light is shining.
ReplyDeleteLovely shots of these pretty roses!
ReplyDeleteWaiting for the Winter to come, it's so unusual for me to see roses in their glory! I almost smell them, especially the red one!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful flowers....Mine are mostly dead now with our freeze...sigh..
ReplyDeleteBeautiful shots! My favorite is the long stemmed rose.
ReplyDeleteSo sweet are they all, beautiful pics:)
ReplyDeleteArija I have just picked the last four roses of Summer from my garden - there will be no more now until next year.
ReplyDeleteOh these photos of flowers and blooms are outstanding! :)
ReplyDeleteArija,
ReplyDeleteI'm amazed at how early in the season your roses bloom! Do they smell as wonderful as they look?
Arija: It so wonderful to come down under and see the Spring blooms. We had a freeze last night and my flowers are done for the season.
ReplyDeleteThese are lovely. I like the second-to-last one the best.
ReplyDeletefabulous set of photos! I love roses too...thanks for the visit...
ReplyDeleteAmazing to see the early summer blooms of your garden as mine is ready to rest.

ReplyDeleteMmmm...I can smell their heavenly scent from here!
ReplyDeleteYour pink rose is a sensation!
ReplyDeleteHi Arija, thank you for commenting on my "today's flowers."
ReplyDelete"Black Boy" rose is very lovely it would go well together with a
"White Girl" rose!
Love the last, stubborn, flowers trying to hang on a little longer. I have always grown "Bewitched". It is such an easy going, beautiful rose.
All beautiful; but I love that rose bud!
ReplyDeleteDelightful flower photos!
