Ahhh...thanks for sharing these pics.

In my old life, I had 40 different varieties of roses and miss them tremendously.

I am about to admit one of my greatest life regrets...when I bought this house from my mother, she had many different heirloom roses. All of which promptly died under my benign neglect. I am now trying to plant again, trying to get it going...but, have had no success...
