April showers bring May flowers...

My garden seems to have suddenly erupted in blossoms and it is stunning, if I do say so myself. I have eight rose bushes in my front yard which are a rainbow of color: red, tangarine, pale pink, candy cane striped (in photo), yellow, white, lavender and deep pink. This is the peak season for the next two weeks or so and actually every where around the valley the roses are just bursting with color and variety. As for my mock orange bush it is being an overachiever. I planted it because I wanted to enjoy the orange fragrance but there has never been any fragrance just this incredible show which totally works for me. What a joy nature is. Take some time to smell the roses!!
