My Roses

I have been interested in growing heirloom and antique roses for a while. These are two of the varieties I am growing currently. The pink rose is called Seafoam, and the red one is a Don Juan. Don Juan is my favorite rose. They smell so good, and they have a lovely dark red color. The nice thing about antique roses is that they do not require the spraying that hybrid tea roses need. These roses are pretty hardy and vigorous growers.

Today we are going to plant our flowerbeds. I'm excited, because we got some really pretty bedding plants from a little plant nursery called Ins and Outs. It is a quaint little place, and they always have nice, healthy plants. I'll be sure to post pictures when we are done planting.
