For a Few Weeks In May...

...all the roses in the Laguna Garden seem to be in
bloom at once and it is spectacular!
Before the rose slugs and black spot
and mildew set in they seem like
the perfect plants. The one above is Sally Holmes.

This is the oldest rose I have in the garden,
about 15 years old and climbing up an arbor
and through an old avocado tree.
It is New Dawn.

Here is a view of the main rose bed
with Graham Thomas, Ellen, and Tamara.
