How many roses have you got? They're all lovely, I especially like the "Perle des Jardin".

 100? Oh, my, oh, my, that must have been a sight when they were blooming! Have you added to or lost some since you last counted?

Your garden must look great when all your roses flower Trudy. Are they scented? If they are you must want to be outdoors all the time drinking in the scent of them.

WoW, 100! That's so great Trudy. I had 2 and I replaced them twice. I finally gave up and now I have none. Thanks for sharing yours. They are all really pretty. Great colors too!

Well come on then, I have lost some over the last couple years for one reason or another. I decide to recount this afternoon an not counting repeats, it wound up being 91. Some just wouldn't be happy where I would put them an croak on me, drought would also be a problem. I mostly have the antique/heirloom with a few hybrids an Buck roses. I didn't use to be fond of roses til I was introduced to the oldies. They are time travelers in a sense an some date back to b4 Christ. Maybe its the history behind them that intrigues me, I don't know. The air is like purfume when they are all blooming at once when I walk around.
