"How cunningly nature hides every wrinkle of her inconceivable antiquity under roses and violets and morning dew." ~ Ralph Waldo Emerson

Those are absolutely beautiful! What are their names? I'm always on the lookout for new roses with cool names.

Thanks for thinking they are pretty. The amazing part is that 1,2 and 4 are the same rose. The Chicago peace rose changes each day you see it. The yellow is Gold Medal which I was luke warm about has turned out to be quite nice. I just purchased Dolly Parton and have April in Paris ordered. I will keep my eye out for roses with fun names for you.

That is so cool. Looks like I'm going to be planting a Chicago Peace rose or two! (I'll plant it to remember Leah and Jack's trip to Chicago. ;)) And I love the Gold Medal rose also -- the yellow with the pink edge is beautiful. Purchase #2!
What is the Dolly Parton like? Big overblown blossoms? :)
