I thought it was getting warmer? Well at least the flowers are happy.

Enjoy your spring!; 20 May 2008 at 00:51
Lynn said...: Ah, spectacular! Yes, as I've shivered my way through April and May, I've kept reminding myself that it's good for the roses. In my neck of the woods, it's likely to turn sweltering any minute now...; 20 May 2008 at 02:26

Hang on wall.

Off you go!; 20 May 2008 at 12:31

dottycookie said...: Lovely, Alice. Our Zephirine Drouhin is flowering now which fills me with joy as it took a good year to settle down and stop sulking.

But hold on there - blogless Kristina is going to have a blog? Yay!!!!; 20 May 2008 at 19:33

Those roses are quite lovely - do you live somewhere exotic? - there's not the faintest hint of a rose here.; 20 May 2008 at 23:34
