Early this morning I took my tea out to the garden to have a look. The grass was dewy, the light was soft, and the sweet fragrance in the air was exhilarating. It seemed like everything was in bloom -- the fruit trees, the citrus trees, the roses, and the wisteria covering the pergola and the arbor. Not much to say here except admire the beauty.
Beverly Hills Apple: deep pink buds open to reveal pale pink petals.
Blood Orange: creamy white from bud to blossom.
Meyer Lemon: fuscia buds open to white petals.
Wisteria: deep purple from bud to blossom in grape-like clusters.
Margaret Merril: a beautiful old-fashioned peachy-white floribunda rose with a
luscious fragrance that blooms all season long.
Just beautiful Merrill!
ReplyDeleteThank You for posting these as they really brighten my day. :-)

ReplyDeleteCowabunga!
ReplyDeleteWhat a colorful back yard for gambolling. I particularly adore Margaret Merril, especially its poetic description, which rolls off the tongue so easily - "peachy-white floribunda rose with luscious fragance....." Close my eyes and I can see and smell the fragance.
