I cannot begin to imagine the joy of having so many beautiful roses blooming at the same time.

I have thought of you often, and prayed too.

In this bouquet the Aromatherapy stole my heart! They are all beautiful in their unique way - and that's the way it should be! The variety of roses is simply stunning!

Although my computer is slow it's worth the wait to see these beautiful blooms. Thinking of you.

Linda at To Behold The Beauty said...

I'm no expert on roses, but I wondered what makes the Tennessee Vol different from the Wildfire shown in this post. They're both orange. Is there a difference in the construction of their petals?

I love these macro photos of the different roses. That Summer of Love has such beautiful coloration.

TexWisGirl said...

the peach and white are my favorites, but they're all amazingly beautiful. :)

From the Kitchen said...

Beautiful! My grandmother used to cut out photos of lovely roses and decoupage them onto wooden pieces. I have a few and they are treasures. She always used photographs instead of drawings as she wanted to "see them as close to nature as possible".

Best,
Bonnie

Cheryl @ TFD said...

The roses are all so beautiful, Betsy, and I love the photography. I'm still trying to figure out how to take closeups with my new camera and not having a lot of luck, so far. Don't know what I'm doing wrong and I'm running out of patience! :D

They're all very very beautiful, but I think my fav color is the Wildfire, too! WoW! =)

Ginny Hartzler said...

I can't pick a favorite today, because most of them are! The wildfire one is amazing!

HappyK said...

Each one is so beautiful. Before I read your and George's blogs I never realized just how many different kinds of roses there are.

Tracy said...

YEs, Betsy, I love the color of Wildfire, but more than that, I love aromatherapy and touch of class!

Hi Betsy...

OK..Wildfire has won my vote. They are all beautiful, but I always lean towards the colors of tangerine, orange, peach etc...
Thank you for sharing these pictures.
Still thinking of your family...
