Garden Roses


These are the first roses cut from our garden! Ian and I didn't realize we even had a rosebush until a few days after we moved into the new place. Portland's nickname is the City of Roses and most of the rosebushes around the city were in full bloom about the time we moved, but our rosebush still had tightly shut buds. I wondered aloud to Ian about what color roses he thought we'd have and told him I hoped they'd be orangey-pink, my favorite.  Luckily we didn't have to wait too long to find out and can you imagine my delight when they actually were orangey-pink roses!!! I have to say it gave me a warm-fuzzy feeling about the house.
