Florence, you have the most romantic garden, with big, gorgeous rose bushes and climbers. I LOVE the big windows you have all around in your dining room. Your "found" rose is to die for. It would be wonderful to know what it is. It's absolutely gorgeous.

Thanks for the marvelous treat!

Florence, you live in paradise, rose heaven! I love Grandma's Lace! Going to look her up on HMF and then off to purchase YET ANOTHER rose.

When will the rose buying cycle end? My wallet cannot keep up with all this enabling from the forum. Oh, but I do LOVE shopping for roses :-)

Florence, your garden is incredible beautiful! To see these mature roses is just wonderful! I am also not familiar with Grandma's Lace. It looks very intriguing to me!

Thanks for posting!

Thanks for posting, Florence. I hope this spring is the best ever for you. My cousin in Chicago called about 2 days ago and she woke up to - Snow!! Crazy spring for the Midwest.

I had to look at your pictures again Florence. Your garden and roses are so spectacular. I keep hoping I'll catch up some day.

Thank you for the inspiring photographs. And I love your roses in vases. The round cut glass ones are to die for. You can bet I'll be keeping my eyes out for something like them but I know how valuable they are. I saw a film once showing the glassmakers (Waterford?) making the cuts/carving into the still-warm glass, amazing.

Hope your spring comes soon and is just as beautiful as your photographs are.

Denise---I've been collecting vases for many years----a few years ago I started to collect "rose bowls" and I do love them----someday I will get them all together and post a picture-----I've been lucky to find them in thrift shops and yard sales---A couple of my cut glass ones are from TJMAXX-----and they were quite reasonable----It is amazing what you can find at TJMAXX-----
