19-SEP-2010 Yvonne

~ 19 ~

We've had record rains the last 2 months and my rose garden has loved
the soaking its had and responding well. We're looking forward to
a wonderful flush of spring roses when the sun remembers how to shine!

I got caught in the rain taking this photo, it started drizzling again.

This is "Vick's Caprice" - its quite amazing how each rose has different looking leaves!

Such natural irrigation will surely yield a wonderful abundance of roses.

The photo shows the leaves just soaking up the moisture. When was the last time you got caught in the rain?

Looks like you'll get a spectacular show of roses this year with all that nice vigorous leaf growth. This is the opposite of what happened here this past spring.
