An over the head shot of my trellis with Lady Banks Climbing Roses.  When the wind picks up it's like snow falling when the petals drop.

And a few more head shots.

Cool shots.
Make sure you post the amaryllis shots.
It looks like some sort of variety with red in it.

When you're good you're good, Tim.  If I remember correctly (bonus) the Amaryllis is red.  I have these plants on a table which is sitting on gravel.  This does not stop snails from entertaining themselves on amaryllis.  Have to get out there everyday to catch another diner.

Caught a few snails on the first fragrant bearded iris to open this spring too.  >:(-

Nice photos Annette. I wish we could grow Roses here but the weather is just too wet and cold for them and they only last a few years without constant spraying. Yours are beautiful.

Thanks Maryvonne!  Love roses!!  My DH use to hate them in the garden so I had a rose garden for myself which he was not allowed to touch - that's when he use to tend the garden chore.  Now that I take care of the gardens I have planted many more rose plants outside of the rose garden.

Most of the roses I have are all budding now but Mon Cheri is the first with flowers.  And she smells delish  o(:-)

beautiful picts!  I didnt know you loved roses.. they are this years obbession with me.. I want them everywhere.. been looking at the rose gallery on gardenweb.  I have bought quiet a few this year, mostly climbers to see if I can get them to hide my ugly chain link fence.  I have bought all the spray etc as I figure I will have to spray to have them.
