| PEPPERMINT SPLASH ROSE | 
I am featuring my favorite flower,  our ROSES,  today in celebration of my 71st birthday (which is Monday, August 5)... Since I'm taking a week off from blogging next week to celebrate and have some fun ---AND get some things done here,  I will celebrate my birthday a few days early with you!!!!!!!  Hope you enjoy seeing more of our beautiful ROSES.   I am a blessed woman to have all of these in our yard--and inside (when George brings one in for me each day). 
As most of you know by now (since I talk about it constantly),  we have 57 different varieties of Hybrid Tea and Grandiflora Roses in our yard... This has been a good year for all flowers ---including the Roses.  We've had a cooler summer than normal and a wetter one... SO---overall,  the Roses have done very well...
I've already published two other blog posts showing some of our roses this year.   Click 
HERE  and/or 
HERE  to see the other posts.   Today I'll share with you  12 more of our Roses... Hope you enjoy them --almost as much as I do!!!!!!  BUT--that would be impossible since I love them very very very very very much!!!!!!!  Thanks to George for taking such good care of his babies ---and sharing them with me!!!
Be sure to click on the photos for enlargements.... The one above is one of our most unique roses ---and each bloom is a little different from the last one...Don't you think that the name is appropriate????
