Why I love late spring
These are the old fashioned/English roses.
I guess there are a couple of bushes here that don't have any flowers on them right now.
Mr. Lincoln is the very tall, leggy bush. It's been trimmed down from 8' or 9'
'
Here are a couple of more.
Just to make things interesting, here are a couple of magnolia blossoms.
And here are the new kids: blue girl, Queen Elizabeth, broadway, and heirloom. Well, it claims to be heirloom, but it has double blossoms, so I suspect some old fashioned/English influence in this bush.
