Flowers

It would have been my Mothers birthday yesterday, this is a rose called Evelyn May, her name, and it smells delicious....my dear Jan bought me and my brothers each one, after Mum passed away, and they are really lovely..
Begonias doing well...
My water lily again this year...

Glorious, Alifan. I'd quite like to buy my mother a rose next time I visit. Is there one called Joyce I wonder? Thanks for this idea.

I am sure there is Lynn. and Peter Beales Roses are near Full so you will def. have to ask him to take you...

Lovely flowers. I tried growing begonias once, but it's too hot here, I guess. I love roses that have a nice aroma...otherwise what's the point? Unfortunately, I have too much shade to grow roses.

What beautiful flowers. Thank you for posting more. It's wonderful that your roses are not only beautiful but aromatic, too.

Thanks Cynthia and Lupine Lady.. I have just had to water with the hose, all my water butts are on empty, we have not had any rain for quite a while and I hate to see the plants die....

Glad you like the flowers...

The roses really are beautiful—and such a lovely color.
