I spent a few hours at Hollywood yesterday afternoon, and I photographed 35 roses. It was a beautiful, warm, sunny day ... great for being outdoors, but lousy for decent photography. I took advantage of brief cloud cover when I could, so most of my photos are fairly representative of what each rose looks like.

I will format and share as many photos as I can later. To be honest, I just can't spare the time to do that right now. My main concern is to make sure that each rose is documented and that the photos are safely downloaded and backed up.
Today is a fun day. I'm heading to northern Virginia for a garden club plant exchange. The back of my Jeep is full of roses that I have decided not to plant ... can't wait to see what cool stuff I can swap them for!
