This rose produces a beautiful array of blooms every year and never fails me, just like my friendship with my two special friends Carey and Wendy. This weekend we had a wonderful time on a girls trip to McKinney, TX, great shops, great food, lots of laughter and wonderful memories. [...]
This rose is for my special friend Marcie who always enjoys seeing Mr. Lincoln Rose blooming at my front door when she stops by.
This beautiful door embraced the entryway of a very exquisite garden at the first home on the White Rock East Garden Tour. The grounds were vast, peaceful and green around the small quaint two-story home. The upstairs window of the home looked out onto the large round fountain.
