the celebration of old roses -- photo essay

10 years ago

NO NO! NOT all posted here! That wouldn't work.

But I have placed an "album" of images on the Facebook Pages of the Heritage Roses Group AND the Gold Coast Heritage Roses Group -- so check 'em out!

And if you don't want to go to FB (I understand that) You can access them at the Heritage Roses Group website. Look on the right for photos added 5-21-13

I hope you enjoy them. :-)

Jeri - it was a delightful day. It was an immense pleasure for me to see you, Clay, Anita, Jill and Jay again, and to meet David, Rosefolly and Mendocino_rose for the first time. I missed seeing Jackie and Luxrosa.

My daughter enjoyed the day, too, but I think Beckett was the reason for that :-)

Thanks for posting the pictures - I can relive the day!

Cheers,
Jo

P.S. "Rose Rustling..." is a great little book!!

Oh, Jo! I'm so glad you like the little book! And it was great to meet your family, and see you again. You got to meet Miss Tika, also, I think. :-)

Curioser and curioser. When I tried your directions, no option appeared of opening another window, so I couldn't follow through, jannorcal. I wonder what causes the differences. I too have a photobucket account, so that can't be it. I wonder, jannorcal, do you use a MAC perhaps? I know that there are some commands that don't translate well between MAC and Windows. Of course, it might also depend on what kind of computer Jeri uses also. Perhaps different browsers account for the difference? I use IE. What do you use, Jannorcal? Well, all this work to see Alfred Colomb was worth it anyway. Alfred is g-o-r-g-e-o-u-s!!!! Kate

I've noticed that there are a few gems lying similarly hidden on the RVR website. It seems as though there are roses which were entered with just enough information for them to be purchased, but missing info on class, color, scent, etc. which prevents them from appearing when searching by any of those criteria. Considering their rather large inventory, if there's something you're seeking, try looking alphabetically. That's how I stumbled upon their "Louis Philippe from Florida" and "Reine des Violettes from Florida" (though I didn't end up buying them). :-) ~Christopher

I'll be there in spirit, and hoping for lots of photographs for poor souls like me who can't be there to enjoy it in person. Ingrid

John, note that, when I photographed 'Mons. Tillier', he was sitting properly in the Tea section, where he belonged. I think that maybe someone had picked him up and carried him around. I've done that myself, but I do usually put them back where they came from. I had a lovely conversation over there with a gentleman who loved all the same Teas that I do. (He had a passion for 'General Gallieni'. So do I, with thanks to Gean.) Then I had to scuttle back to our table, as we were a little shorthanded this year. But I was SO happy to meet several of our GW group! That MADE MY DAY! Well, THAT, and the fact that I took memberships from NEW people, who were just beginning this voyage of discovery. That's so terribly important. It was a wonderful day. And after, we headed north, and spent a couple of days in Ft. Bragg. If you get a chance to visit the Mendocino Botanical Garden, be sure to do so.

Yes, we did get to see Tika and Katie just before we left. My daughter spent the drive back home begging us to get another dog - a long-haired Dalmatian, her new favorite breed, of course!
