As much as I hate to see the iris end, it means the roses have started! The 'Therese Bugnet' is the earliest of my roses and started with the iris but 'William Baffin' (above) had its' first open bloom yesterday. Today it is full. 'John Cabot' and Marilyn's rose opened along with it. All the others are in full bud and I expect to see more varieties open over the next few days. There are several reasons I love roses. The scent, the colours, the abundant blooms and the fact that they will flower now right through until fall. What more could you ask of a flowering shrub?
