And the Tortured Flower Garden bloomed! Honestly! I have only watered twice in the last 2 years (trying to be good & conserving water), I rarely fertilize or do ANYTHING to these beauties. :D

These little roses are pale green when they first open, then change to a lovely cream when they are completely full.

ROSES!!!

They are amazing!

Someday I will live in a place where I can grow them. Here in northern NY I can buy them and enjoy them for one year, but after the winter only a few come back and the flowers are not that great.

WOW! I want your tortured garden! Beautiful!

In the "olden days" when they were watered on a regular basis, the irises bloomed pretty much all year long. 8) One of my friends saw them when I posted them on Facebook & said that all he got was weeds from the rain. LOL I'm just smart enough not to take pics of the weeds! :lol:

I'm jealous!!!
We are just starting to see the daffodils around here!!
I am so waiting for the warm weather!! It seems to be taking forever! We tend to have one nice day and then two or three yucky ones!!
I would love to be able to smell those beautiful roses!!!
