    Allright! That is a very good shot. I take lots of night pictures myself, and they don't always come out that well.

    I'm sorry. I'll go look at a Dublin map right after dinner and I'll drop a note in your profile about several of the sites. Will that make up for my sins?

    Maddy, absolutely gorgeous roses and photos! I favor the white one but I love two tone long stemmed, also....it is vibrant! I used to have a whole garden of rose bushes (long stem ones) and I would bring in bunches daily during the blooming season; they smelled so good and made the house fragrant. I adore roses and love the way you captured these opening...so delicate and so lovely. Good job on your close-ups. They are wonderful! Good luck with your roses, too!

    My favourites are also the long stem ones. I dont have enough space for a garden, its just a balcony that I have, where I can put some potted plants. These two roses were the first ones that I got It was delightful to see these bloom. I am glad you liked the pics

    Oddly enough I didn't have much space when I had these roses. I lived in the city; a row home, semi-detached. It had this tiny backyard which consisted of a sort of L shaped flower garden and then just cement, no lawn to speak of. The owner before had planted the bushes..about 15 and she send away for rare varieties. My mother-in-law knew roses and landscaping. She worked in the business; so she would come and help me mulch them well and feed them. Thus they produced really fine specimens. I now have a good size yard and we had 3 rose bushes but two are sickly. The other is just small trailing type pink roses. We had this lovely yellow bush near our backsteps but I pruned it once and low and behold next year the yellow disappeared and the roses were bright red; obviously the bush had been grafted..so much for thos glorious yellow blooms! I think soil has a lot to do with growing good bushes. We have horrid natural soil here in the big yard. Also, the beetles get them. I think in the city the pests did not venture cause of polution.... You will probably have great luck with yours.

    Some more pictures from my weekend trip. It was a national holiday on Monday (Republic Day), so, we had a long weekend.

    I went to this hill station (Kodaikanal, Tamil Nadu) some 550 kms (340 miles approx) from Bangalore. It was a much needed break.
