Roses

Today I planted a rose - a Lyda Rose that I ordered from Heirloom roses. I like shrub roses, especially those with single blossoms like a wild rose.

I picked this one because it supposedly will bloom well in shade, and with my black walnut tree, my small yard only gets good sun in the winter and spring before the tree leafs ouit. It hasn't even started yet, so the rose has a bit of time to enjoy the sun and get established.
