Roses, Roses, Roses

Who does love roses? They are beautiful to look at and have a heavenly smell. They also come in lots of different shades of my favorite color, pink! I bought these rose bushes from the "Rose Lady" who used to specialize in sell roses of all kinds at the farmers markets in Michigan. Sadly she retired and no longer sell her beauties. I also did not record the names of these roses either, I wish I had!









Some of these roses were almost as big as a luncheon plate. 



I really like the pretty blush of pink on these, a quiet pink.




These remind me of old fashion roses you might see at a farm house.




Like other places in the midwest, we have had a cool down the last few days, with highs only in the 50's and low 60's. It feels more like early October than the last days of July! Our little town had fireworks last night that had been delayed due to rain the night before.  Seriously, I had to put on one of my winter coats to sit out and watch them, yikes! 

I big thank you to Kathryn at Make It Pretty Monday for featuring our side door flowers from last week. Another thanks to Nita at Mod Mix Monday she also featured our flowers. Thank you both!


Hoping your week will be warm and sunny…..

Roses in Pink

Late June is a wonderful time in northern Michigan, temperatures are in the 70's and everything is really starting to bloom. Last week some of my roses bushes looked just glorious. Somehow last year I missed taking pictures of the roses, so I'm glad I was able to snap a few photos this year.





You may have guessed pink is the color I like for my roses.






These are by far my favorite, they are mind me of old fashion roses. I love how the white fringes on the outside around the pink.
