    My Beautiful Rose

    I took these today before I cut it and brought it inside. I can't believe how fast it opened up. When I got home last night, it was a bud that wasn't even opened! It smells wonderful. It's name is Princess del Monaco. I would like to get more. There's a beautiful lilac one called Lagerfeld. Maybe one day I'll get brave and buy it. Roses are very picky and I consider myself lucky that I haven't killed it yet.

    I did the right thing by setting you free
    But the pain is very deep.
    If only I could turn back time, forever, you I'd keep.
    I miss you


    I hear you whimper in your sleep
    I gently pet you and say, no bad dreams
    It will be alright, to my dog as dark as night.

    Fur as dark as the night.
    Join me on this flight.
    Paws of love that follow me.
    In my heart you'll forever be.

    How I wish I could hold you near.
    Turn back time to make it so.
    Hug you close and never let go.

    Gorgeous, Valerie!! Even though it's down to 40 degrees at night here now, I still a have a few late bloomers! I picked one Aloha today; it's a beautiful deep pink and very fragrant! Even my antique Zephrine Drouhin has a few buds opening! Definitely get the Lagerfeld. It's lovely and you obviously have the knack!! In school (horticulture) they claimed it to be the first "blue" rose. Well, sort of!

    Two lagerfeld bushes!

    I have two of the lagerfeld bushes and they are wonderful roses. The beetles love them too, so I spend lots of time spraying....

    What a beautiful flower. Princess del Monaco is a fitting
    name for such a gorgeous rose. I'd love to see the Lagerfeld.

    I tried to save one of these pics but when you right click, the pic goes away so here's the link. It's a really beautiful rose.

    What a beautiful rose........they are much hardier than you think.....and yes, they do need to be sprayed and fed.......but they are like animals - talk to them, feed them, praise them and they return the joy a thousand fold.

    I have one I would like to share as soon as I can download it. It is called Just Joey and is one of my favorites.

    In Calif. I will probably get one more set of blooms and then it is all over until next year.

    Thanks for sharing your rose.
