I’m sure that anyone that’s been to this site before knows that as far as my garden goes seeing my plants doing well and blooming makes me happy.

Just look at the lovely rose photo I’ve included in this post.

I took that photo last year and I can’t remember just which rose bush those flowers were blooming on. My guess is that it’s either Compte de chambord or Baronne Prevost. Either way, the roses are lovely and highly scented.

Imagine walking into a garden filled with lush blooms like those above, surrounded my their beautiful scent. How could you not be happy.

    how beautiful! I love roses so much. I especially love the older varieties that haven’t had the scent bred out of them. In my old house I had a beautiful rose bush that was a cutting from my mother’s bush, which was a cutting from a great aunt… a beautiful old flower…
