Thank you, Marlorena! Rosemoor make a delicate looking confection of a bouquet. I am thankful for my American heritage, of course, but also for our English heritage. England gave the world Henry Purcell composer, Jane Austen, Charlotte Bronte, Charles Dickens, John Bunyan, writers and Ronald Colman, my favorite actor - A Tale of Two Cities, the respite of afternoon tea, and of course, English roses. We love our neighbors across the pond as we celebrate our own country today.

Well Kirk, I sort of 'missed' the 4th. No holiday here, my two oldest kids left for cooler states and vacations. DH played golf. So I bathed my 5 whippets and little Zorro. LOL. You know how much I love Bart, and love seeing him decorated all thru the different holidays. He's one handsome Dude! I'm totally jealous of the fantastic 4th your family had. Please adopt me!!! Oh wait, you did that, I just can't get to WA to firm it up right. ;o) hugs, Karen

Maryl - The main reason I bought Judy's Jewel was to cross with former Valentine Sweetheart. It's in the same color class, but larger. So the fact it doesn't multiply much and isn't very tall isn't important to me. It's a big fader too, where former VS holds its color much better. I'm trying to get a taller Val. Swhrt with a bloom size of 7 inches or more. I have some buds on JJ, but I don't know if they'll make it in this heat. I've also crossed it with Dancing Flamingo both seasons. Debra

Erasmus, amen to your comments! I think expensive weddings are insane; if DD gets married, she's going to get the kind of wedding I had unless she pays for it herself. She won't mind. Ours was really nice and I remember it fondly. Kristine, DH is a native of Italy who lived most of his working life in the U.S. When he retired (he's older than I am) I wanted to live somewhere other than the U.S. for a couple of years, so we went to Italy, where we ended up buying a retired farm and staying permanently. I'm happy to be here, though I miss my family and am wondering when Covid and the price of airplane tickets will allow me to go back for a visit. I haven't seen them in three years.

Thank you, Marlorena. It's a very warm day today, I spent time enjoying the garden this morning.

I'm a little too tired to go see fireworks, but corn with dinner and chocolate ice cream bars will be tasty treats this evening. (and the local strawberries!)

What a beautiful bouquet.... the tulip on the vase with the roses is lovely.
