Another non-rosy perspective
Our sturdy backyard corner rose bush certainly is waiting for this brisk January weather to call it quits.

Spotted in our backyard as we march toward 2022: A rose bush greening up with a brush of snow under its growth. This has been one confusing year.
First year in the spot, this backyard rose won’t give up. The buds, they keep coming.
Checking out the latest round of blooms in the backyard gardens, I notice an odd configuration in the corner rose bush. These blooms have chosen togetherness. A handful of beauty has decided to press into what looks like one giant ball of color. My dear wife Karen and I agree that we don’t recall seeing…
Shortly after arriving home from Cape Cod Getaway 2021, we walked through the house and into the backyard. Yes, the big bunch of roses there had bloomed during our time away as well. The three colors looked so good in their seasonal debut.
Spring continues its progression in my neck of the woods. Leaves have popped up on the backyard rose bushes. I again appreciate the one-by-one of our various flora and fauna.
The first buds of the season I spy turn up on a sprawling rose bush on the backyard path. Winner!
The purples and yellows won’t give up this summer. Yay! Great timing for sure. And from the other side.
The oranges started the backyard roses this year. OK, coral, says my dear wife Karen. Then the yellow joined in. And some pink, too.
Here’s what I’m cheering for in the backyard. I really adore who our spring comes in stages. But I do get a bit antsy.
