Breedlove Nursery in Tyler, Texas

 
While traveling from Dallas, I stopped in Tyler, Texas.  For a purpose.  I drove just a little way off Interstate 20 to visit Breedlove Nursery.  I was looking for a Rose.

Breedlove Nursery is more than rows of plants offered for sale.  

It is also like a lovely garden.  

 

The patio I would like to have at my home!

But, this is the reason I stopped by. 

 I needed a new Grahm Thomas Rose.  Mine died two years ago and I still had not found a replacement.  I bought two.  Grahm Thomas, I have missed you!!

Ahh, this was a little beauty!

Drift, from the family of easy care Knock Outs.

Brought this little rose home too!

A Cold Night.

We had a freeze recently.  This is my Birdbath.

Now, remember I live in the deep south.  

My Roses froze.

But the silver lining is my Camilla.  

And the bush is full of buds!!

Happy end of 2011.  

And may 2012 bring  you more beautiful flowers.

Beautiful Louisiana

I was driving home from teaching in North Louisiana..

 and this is what I saw.

It was very early morning and the cold air brought a beautiful mist with it.

Belinda's Dream in my pretty Vintage Vase.

And my Fairy Rose.  

It is loving the cooler weather and I am loving the deep pink it has turned!

Many happy Roses to You.

Looking Out My Windows in the Early Morning

Looking out my Dining Room window. Facing East.

I took pictures out my windows early in the morning. 

And this is what I saw.

Sunlight through my bedroom curtain.  Facing East.

Pull back the curtain.  Roses.

Looking out my front door.  Facing east.

Out my back window.  Facing West.
