Missing my garden...

Oh, it's about this time every year that I start to really miss my garden. Here is a close up of one of my roses. I think that's why all the garden seed and nursery catalogs start coming about now......they know us gardeners and how we long to dig in the dirt ~ plant new things ~ smell the beautiful roses ~ watch the butterflies flutter and the birds take a refreshing bath. Oh spring can't come soon enough.......this has already been a snowy and C*O*L*D winter. For now......I'll just enjoy the pics of my pretty roses......
