A Pretty Little Rose

I was surprised by this lovely rose bloom the other day. It seems like it was just February when I pruned the rose bushes here. It has bloomed twice now in the last 2 weeks. I am hoping for a few more blooms. I don't remember the name of this rose, but it is a pale shade of pink and white blended together. Do you have any roses at your home? Are they blooming? What color are they? Photo Credit: My Own

Great pic. Thanks for sharing it. We don't have sufficient space for a garden in our house, but now we are renovating it and will leave some space for vegetables and flowers.

@Shivram59 Do you know how long your renovations will take and has the process started yet?

Peggy Martins are pretty and will shoot up on you. Do you have something for it to climb on?

@kareng Not yet but I'm working on it as soon as I can get the front yard area going again in the garden like I said it's not big enough to start climbing "yet"

I have a red and I think yellow yet. The red is that huge climbing one.

Hubby is cutting down the old ancient climbing one in the ancient camellia bush very soon. I bet he gets all scratched up. His project so his scratches. I'm not having anything to do with it. I just want the American Beauty bush saved!

@wolfgirl569 And cats! I got a good one the other day putting drops in one of the cat's eyes. She looks like she has upper respiratory infection starting and I wanted to clear the eyes up before they got worse. Needless to say, she didn't like the drops at all and I got a nice 3 inch scratch that drew blood.

That's a lovely shade of pink. I bought an orangey colored mini rose on Easter. I just planted it in the garden. I hope it grows.

No roses here. I have azalea bushes and several other flowers that I have no clue what they are. They were planted by a landscaper.

Azaleas are pretty too!! I need to fertilize the ones on the front fence row and see if we can get more blooms.

@LindaOHio I don't mind the weeds here. They are old time weeds that I had never seen before and I love looking them up on the internet so see what they are and what they were used for. Most of them all have medicinal properties.

I like roses but I haven't them at home. I think they need more sunshine and this is not suitable at my home. I have orchids instead. Now I try to grow more orchids with its flower stems but haven't succeeded yet.

I have no rose bush in my yard. Roses are really pretty flowers to have growing in your yard,

These are actually out in my "garden square" which is just a square out in the field somewhat near the chicken coop. My hubby calls it the annoying square to mow!

I can understand that. That's how I feel about all the Camelias my grandfather planted in Louisiana. I don't understand now why my mother didn't bring a couple with us when we moved. We rented, but could have moved the plant when we moved. Sad!

That is indeed a pretty rose. I am down to two roses now. One is a pale pink and the other variegated yellow/orange/red.

I have three, but the hubby is going to be cutting down the climbing rose in the Camellia bush. It doesn't have room to grow in there and rarely blooms. He has to take another tree down that grew up against the Camellia, and says the rose has to go so he can get up in there to get the tree down. Don't want the tree to fall on new power line when cabin goes in.
