My world often contains roses. The last of our roses bloomed this week, so I thought I would post this picture of the front of our house, showing almost all of our roses (two in containers on the extreme right didn’t get into the picture. We have 48 roses — 22 in the bed on the left of the driveway, 16 in containers, and 10 in the bed on the right.
Needless to say, these flowers are a big part of my world in the Spring and Summer.

Your house is just beautiful! I can see that you pride yourself on your roses and all of your flowers for that fact! Absolutely stunning. Your home is those that when we walk down the street we often stop and just oooh and ahhhh and how beautiful it looks… very nice.

I love your home George! It looks so inviting. Do you have problems keeping the pots upright after a windy storm?

We sure have enjoyed your roses. Thank you so much. I do a lot of container planting. Some are perennials and some with annuals I repot every year. Roses in containers is a great idea. does anybody ever drive into the potsd in the driveway? MB

With that many rose plants you can have your own rose garden tour! I bet it’s a magnificent show when they all bloom simultaneously. I bet you get a lot of cars stop to gawk 🙂

Beautiful driveway. I love the roses and green grass. (Our smaller-than-a-putting-green area of grass is so awful I want to rid ourselves of all grass here.)
