Oh boy, spring is springing beautifully up your way. Such gorgeous photos of gorgeous flora...and a great way to start off the week. Merci!

What lovely flowers, Sylvia!

Oh I envy you the proximity of these beauties! YAM xx
Wow, those roses are spectacular. I've heard that Portland is a great city for growing roses. Tulsa's rose gardens are pretty much wiped out by some disease.
Have a great day Sylvia!
the creamy white ones are my favorites!
Beautiful and I bet aromatic also Sylvia, how lucky to have these gardens so close to home.. Roses are by far my fav summer flower.
Hello There, We just got home from a great week--which was a terrific 'healing' experience for me --as I recover from gallbladder surgery followed by that wicked infection... You'll have to check out my blog post today (if you haven't done so yet).
Happy Memorial Day to you and yours... Let's never forget those men and women (past and present) who were/are in the Armed Forces and have done so much to give us the FREEDOM we have today. God Bless ALL of them and God Bless the USA.
Gorgeous Roses... Ours are beginning to bloom now --and I love them all SO much.
Hugs,
Betsy
Gorgeous, and how lucky they are so close to home!
Gosh - those roses are lovely!
Happy Memorial Day! Beautiful roses, Sylvia! Beautiful photos and what a lovely garden to visit. Have a great week ahead!
Lots of roses around here now too!

The roses are gorgeous.

Good photos, I like those roses, beautiful flowers!
Beautiful roses and great quotes.
The pink bushes are so beautiful. Lao Tzu is revered among the Chinese.
Beautiful roses - I'm sure the perfume was wonderful.
I have no favorite for these beautiful roses♡♡♡ I think the first quote is really for me, wish to take things more slowly ;)
I hope you are having a wonderful week.
Sending you Lots of Love and Hugs from Japan, xoxo Miyako*
These are exquisite images of some very beautiful roses.
Thanks for the Lao Tzu quote. I can make use of it in my heart as I approach the work week!
Splendid.
Beautiful words and pictures.
4 great quotes...yielding slightly more to Thoreau's tonight.
Those roses are wonderful, Sylvia. I live two blocks from one of the best rose gardens in the country (which you see all the time on my blog!), but it will be two more weeks before the roses start to bloom.
Very pretty roses.
Thank you for sharing these beautiful roses with us. I've always heard that Portland has many beautiful rose gardens, and your photos certainly confirm that.
I guess that the rose is the most popular flower on earth! You shared these beauties with. anyone who comes to visit you. Thank you for that! Have a great week full of joy and happiness!
