The first photo is gorgeous, looking towards the house. The lawn, roses and ? ivy all soften the bricks and, as you noted, add colour and scent in the summer months.
Happy New Year to you.
Happy New Year to you too
Even in November things look great in this rose garden, Cherry. And I so like that top picture. CAn you imagine living in that place, what a delight that would be.
There are some very nice rooms inside, in some of them it obvious that a batchelor lived here.
In November! I especially love the rain drops.
Yes, these were all taken on 6th November.
I imagine those pink roses will smell like old-fashioned roses, too
I have no sense of smell so I am not sure if they do or not.
How beautiful to see roses still flowering in November – it must look (and smell!) wonderful during the summer months.
I agree it must be stunning in the summer months.
very beautiful freshly watered roses Cherie….peter:)
The raindrops make all the difference.
