This evening, I'll show you some of the buildings (and other structures) and vistas ... so you can see how beautiful it is.
This was beside my Jeep as I parked when I arrived. I think the climber is Dortmund. (I'll confirm this when I get back there tomorrow morning.)
Climbing Souvenir de la Malmaisson
Tombstones, with the Cato Garden in the background.
The Chapel.
The wall of the Confederate Section, where many of the roses grow.
The trees are huge!
A peek at the mountains, over the tombstones, through the trees.
This is Blossomtime, across from the Chapel.
I'm really excited about my program tomorrow.
I'll be back on Friday, with Friday Flowers from Lynchburg.

Not sure where you are, but it looks like a place that I would LOVE. You had me at the first picture with the roses climbing on the building. Looking forward to seeing more!

Beautiful!!! I can't wait to see and hear more about your trip to Lynchburg, and I know you'll knock 'em dead with your program!

Love, love, love the Chapel photo!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful climbing roses! I am wondering what kind of a presentation you are giving.
ReplyDeleteWish I could come along on some of your jaunts! Lovely old place.

ReplyDeleteThis is the Old City Cemetery in Lynchburg, Virginia. I am doing a program called "Roses 101" this morning for their garden syposium. I'll be speaking for a couple of hours, and hopefully all who attend will be more confident rose growers when I finish. That's the plan.
