Roses are my favorite flower. For me, they conjure thoughts of romance, love, candlelit dinners, snuggling under a blanket, and all those other fairytale, romance-novel scenes. I know it sounds like such a cliché, but I’m ok with that.

Because roses instantly make me smile, I wanted to spread that feeling by sharing the first spring blooms from the bushes on my patio.

The lavender/plum rose was a new addition this year. It has the sweet fragrance of a flowery perfume. Thanks for the perfect gift, Mom!

This yellow-throated, orange rose is nothing short of sunshine on a stem.

And, of course, we can’t forget red when we talk about love and romance, so here is one of the red beauties.

It’s funny how I always plan to cut some of the blooms to enjoy in the house, but I find myself more often leaving them in place so they will last longer in their natural habitat.

I hope you are smiling now too. Happy Spring.
