The long-running winter of 2017-18 changed a lot about spring and summer in our Liverpool neighborhood of Galeville, I’m certain.
But as we move through June, I’m happy to look in our backyard and report this fact:
Roses are not only red.
The roses are coming out strong.
Wandering high.
On both sides of our walkway, they prosper.

When the bush in front of my house developed little red buds, I got all excited because I thought maybe it was a really large rosebush, but the buds turned into some other kind of flower which I can’t identify. It’s pretty nonetheless.

Put it in your blog and our friends will tell you what it is, CM. That’s how we identified our dogwood last year!

I tried that with the white flower – posted it in my blog and on Facebook. No one could identify it.
