Why not talk about roses?
Do you mean the ones that come covered in chocolate with all different centres
They come in many different colours and shapes
They frequently smell great
They remind me of a warm summer day
They have nasty, sharp thorns!
I thought you were speaking of your woman
lol 
Hey all things beautiful have to have thorns to protect them... nature's wisdom!!
Beautiful roses Timorus.. .. thanks for sharing!I have beautiful collection of roses.
This is another collection.
Thanks. I have really good collection of roses in my garden.
Did you know that most types of roses are edible, assuming they are grown in 'organic' type settings (so no pesticides and such that could harm us). I have eaten roses with a very spicy taste. It seems that taste comes down to the colour more then anything.
Funny thing is today we look at flowers as being pretty but otherwise somewhat useless. There was a time when your garden was your pharmacy, the things you grew were usually edible and or medicinal. So much knowledge has been lost
(or at least forgotten, lost to the masses really)Sounds interesting
thanks for sharing that
And How are you?
In England we once had a war of the roses. It was not two opposite sides throwing roses at each other or even about roses.
It was simply that the two sides that the two sides that did battle: the supporters of Lancaster and York had red and white roses as symbols. It was called The War of the Roses and took place in the 1400's.Why yes my dear..whenever I can. You saw my Beautiful Garden hub didn't you? I figure I at least had a hand in helping the flowers be the best they can. However nature repays the favour many times over.
Cheers.
This is also a rose plant.Its called moss rose plant.
here is rose photo for sofs.
I have only three roses in my present garden at one time I had a massive Albertina rose; it was a love hate relationship.
I loved the flowers but hated pruning it as it was so vigorous that even being cautious I always got scratched by it.
I once had an American pillar rose which was very well behaves, a good one for training.look at this picture.This is desert rose plant.
Merry Christmas to all
Merry Christmas everyone!!
Here are some yellow & pink ones ...
marigold, I love yellow colored flowers. Somebody sent these flowers to me..
I love receiving flowers anytime , I guess there are very few people who do not...

I took this photo in Sapa - Vietnam. The colors of the roses from there are absolutely amazing - so bright and clear.
Enjoy.
Hmm - tried to add the photo but it didn't work. Ideas anyone. I tried to upload it from my desktop - is that the problem?
Ah here it is - Thanks so much PDH - I was far too impatientHey Izzy,
It's actually really simple now that HubPages has installed a picture posting link on the forum threads. You no longer require to learn the "Command" needed to do it.
Check out, after you hit reply(post reply) and look for the "Camera" icon next to the bottom right of the white box to type into.
Click on the "camera", and it should give you three options. Click on the option you want and tell the computer what to do, where to get it and it will post the picture for you with the proper commands. Then hit submit post.
these are for you prettydarkhorse, love from Bangladesh, happy holidays
You are sweet Cags
;D
: Thank you!!
where have you been ..did not see you for some time now? Please don't tell me you were banned again!!!!!!!No I wasn't banned. I've been cutting down on my posts. As I've stated in another thread, when I reach a certain point, I'm done here.
And, well, I'm almost there.Actually 85 now, because I had to respond to your post.
I have other things I've been neglecting, that need more attention, by giving more attention to those other things, it eliminates my ability to be here.
had to bring these fresh from garden, so it took a little time you know.........
With love from Bangladesh for sofs
Thanks Cags and PrettyDarkHorse too
