Open Garden Day Announcement

This year, the roses have been very shy about showing me when they expect to be in full bloom.  The weather has been up and down temperature-wise, and I like to think that they weren't sure about when it would happen either.  So, I'm making an educated guess, setting a date, and working on preparations ... Drum roll, please ...

The lovely rose in this photo is "Pink Van Fleet"

Mark your calendar and make plans to come by to visit with the roses and to see the fruits of all of my reclamation and renovation efforts in the garden.  You've seen photos of the work here on the blog, and now is your chance to inspect it all in person.  (Address is 335 Hartwood Road, 22406)

I love to meet blog readers, neighbors, fellow rose lovers, and other nice people.  If you're in the area, please make plans to drop by.  Feel free to share the image above, or this whole post if you're so inclined.  (I will even have a few roses for sale ... haven't finished dividing out which ones yet, so stay tuned for that announcement later.)
