But then I read on and felt a little better:) I love the photos of the sweetpeas--they brought back so many memories. My grandmother grew them along a fence next to her flower garden, and we moved to their farm when I was a girl, so I remember many childhood summers admiring the sweetpeas.Rosehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01384059342847120951noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3944937432345427996.post-55534668676798347062013-03-18T08:50:59.935-04:002013-03-18T08:50:59.935-04:00What a nice post Sweetbay!

I do not have room for shrub roses, but I have my eye on the vacant lot next door. Dare I sneak I few in there? I used to have perennial sweet peas in my old garden, but have failed to find a spot for them here. I must try again this year to find them a nice, sunny spot. Love that bright blue iris and the trumpet lilies, especially the tall white ones and the pink that ends the post. So very pretty!!Jenniferhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00116583212813729057noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3944937432345427996.post-46473844827467106572013-03-17T20:14:25.815-04:002013-03-17T20:14:25.815-04:00Thank you for a rose "fix"!
