'Fragrant Cloud' and 'Don Juan' are favorite roses of mine and I'll think of you when they bloom this summer. <br /><br />Brings to mind the Robert Burns poem.<br /><br />O my Luve is like a red, red rose <br /> That’s newly sprung in June; <br />O my Luve is like the melody <br /> That’s sweetly played in tune. <br /><br />So fair art thou, my bonnie lass, <br /> So deep in luve am I; <br />And I will luve thee still, my dear, <br /> Till a’ the seas gang dry. <br /><br />Till a’ the seas gang dry, my dear, <br /> And the rocks melt wi’ the sun; <br />I will love thee still, my dear, <br /> While the sands o’ life shall run. <br /><br />And fare thee weel, my only luve! <br /> And fare thee weel awhile! <br />And I will come again, my luve, <br /> Though it were ten thousand mile.outlawgardenerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08273973572989510382noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5353873250655389819.post-18916323099903408362017-02-18T09:56:49.992-05:002017-02-18T09:56:49.992-05:00What a beautiful post in celebration of your love ...What a beautiful post in celebration of your love for your dear husband. I'm so glad that you are finding the beautiful things in each day, and even on the special days, that bring you joy. It's good to treat yourself with a special meal, and that cheesecake looks mouthwatering! The roses are gorgeous! How perfect to find the "love" rose in the same colours as your previous rose. These blooms will give back to you each year.

I am a little teary-eyed right now after reading your sweet post. The roses are wonderful and that cheesecake is amazing! I would be digging into that face-first, I think! So glad that your friends stopped by and your sweet Brother and Sis-in-law. I have two of the Don Juan roses that I've had for many, many years. They are carefree and the scent is so beautiful. Mine are not in the best location - too much shade - but they keep on going despite it all. I'm glad that you found a rose to replace your sweet anniversary rose. I do believe that roses are gifts from the Angels. Mine always seem to bloom on those sweet days of remembrance - reminding me that my loved ones are always with me and 'sending me roses'.

The roses are so very pretty. The farmer brought a red rose bush to me yesterday and so I need to find a good place to plant it. We have problems with deer eating things in the front yard. The roses I do have are plagued each summer with spots on their leaves and then they drop off. I'm wondering, how do you manage the health of your roses?lil red henhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15494641068959278096noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5353873250655389819.post-58091665208167730052017-02-14T12:39:22.518-05:002017-02-14T12:39:22.518-05:00Lorraine, That is a stunning rose and a lovely gif...Lorraine, That is a stunning rose and a lovely gift to yourself on this Valentine's day, with thoughts of your beloved husband.
