Year 3 - Day 167 - June 15

In the middle of our hideous rose bush, there is one stem that produces regular style salmon colored roses. It just bloomed today. I wish all our roses were this pretty.

Day 149 - May 29

I spent HOURS weeding today.  Hours.  Just about 5.  In my travels, I came across this totally different rose growing amongst the hot pink wild rose bush.  The salmon rose is more "typical" of what you would see if you went to buy roses.  The two rosebushes we have are wild roses (I'm sure there are official names for all these things, but I'm going on prior knowledge here!)  and look and act differently.  It was a surprise to see this other kind of rose appear.  I need to read about roses so I don't kill this bush.

Day 125 - May 5

Our rose bush started blooming yesterday.  These are the first few blossoms.  Time to google "rose bush care," I suppose.... :)

Day 43 - February 12

My husband is a smart man.  He bought these roses at Wegmans on Tuesday, for $9.99.  Today when we met over there for lunch, the same roses were $34.99!!!!!!!
