Due to the fact that the birds were enjoying more of our tomatoes than we were, we decided to try roses instead. Most of the rose bushes came from the wonderful Antique Rose Emporium in Brenham, Texas. (worth the drive!) Here is my first one for this year! And, it smells as pretty as it looks! (Above: one of our garden fairies, Rose, wanted to welcome our first Souvenir de la Malmaison to Cathy Heck Studio!)
