Keep the pictures coming. Still chilly here and I miss seeing flowers ;)

You got it! This is a picture of my "Bridal Pink" rose that I took yesterday. It is a floribunda often used commercially in bride's bouquets. It is very pretty, but I prefer my long stemmed hybrid teas for cutting and using in floral arrangements.

I am looking for a good, dependable white or nearly white rose, Dave. If you are able to discover the name of yours I would be interested in knowing. I had to remove my JFK rose from my garden because it was just doing nothing. The few flowers I got were white tinted with green (a "green" rose named for JFK's Irish heritage), but it never preformed well. (I could draw political parallels here, but I will refrain, LOL. I actually rather liked JFK.)

I have such limited space that I won't keep a rose unless I am very happy with it. Anyway, I need a white one and am not sure which to get. There are so many to choose from.

Have a rosy and happy Warm Fuzzy Wednesday, you two.

Oh, gorgeous! Here is another rose I must have. ;) I have a wonderful white HT named Tienke. Y'all are rose enabling. so if hubby complains I'll blame you ok. ;)

Many blooms, repeats often, great foliage and an excellent shape bush/ HT. Another white I love is Home and Family. That is tall and large beautiful white flowers. :) I'm just popping in so later I'll post a picture of Tienke. :)
