Hollywood Cemetery ... Flowers on Friday.

The new year has arrived, and Friday Flowers here at the Hartwood blog lives on.  This morning, let's see some more of the photos that I took this summer during my visits to Hollywood Cemetery in Richmond ...  along with the markers on the plots where the roses were planted.


These first three roses are probably all Safrano.

Duchesse de Brabant is also found on more than one grave.

Most of the roses I have photographed here, however, are unknown to me right now.  I'm sure someone knows what they are ... I just haven't talked to the right person yet, I guess.

I have featured Hollywood Cemetery here before, and I have no doubt that I will do so again.  (Click HERE to see a slideshow of photos I took in June 2009)  This place is a treasure, tucked beside the James River just beyond Richmond's downtown area ... you just have to see it for yourself.
