Hello everyone,
We are enjoying some lovely summer weather now and our little Island has been bursting with excitement the last few days with music concerts and the Kelly and Regis show being taped from Charlottetown, Prince Edward Island. I hope some of you have been watching them the last couple of days - there are still a couple of more shows to air yet. We are pretty happy that P.E.I. was the second most popular hit on google yesterday and are hoping you all want to come and visit us soon!
Anyway, today I wanted to share a few of our roses with you. The photo of the one above is Heritage a David Austen rose. I love it's delicate beauty.
The top rose is City of York but the bottom was unnamed.
Graham Thomas is the beautiful yellow rose.
Heritage, Graham Thomas and The Dark Lady(lovely strong fragrance) all David Austen roses
I am so happy to have little bouquets of roses to enjoy now that the lilacs and peonies are past. I have lots more photos of garden roses to share another day.
Hope everything is coming up roses for you too!
Take care,
Carolyn

Kelly & Regis should be doing a segment on YOU! The roses are perfect... and since finding your blog, I'm dying to visit PEI one day! ♥
Oh Carolyn, how exquisite your roses are. How very exquisite. Isn't it wonderful that we have been blessed with such incredible beauty! Thank you so much for sharing. Susan
Beautiful roses Carolyn, there are no words to describe their lovely color, I can only imagine their heavenly scent.
Yes I have been watching "Live" and enjoying the view of P.E.I. I am originally from Montreal and have visited the Atlantic provinces when I was young, someday I will return!
Wishing you a wonderful week...

Hi Carolyn! Oh, we caught Regis and Kelly this morning and I told Mr. Precious - this is where my friend Carolyn lives! It's so beautiful! I hope they'll come over to your gorgeous place! :)
You know what? We're taking a New England cruise in October and St. John is one of our stops for the day. Wouldn't it be great if we could meet?
Be a sweetie,
Shelia ;)

Stunning! the first one is so striking. Another beautiful post with flowers. I also loved the tour of your garden, anyone who loves to garden loves to have a peek at other people's gardens. I think you have such a nice climate for growing roses there.
Have a PINK day--I will be posting soon on Marie Antoinette garden the Petit Hameau don't miss it.
Wonderful things gardens

Hello Carolyn......Oh yes I have been watching Regis and Kelly and thinking of you everytime! What a beautiful part of the world you live in! Love the pastel yellow roses....I may need to plant some of those in my garden!~Hugs, Patti
David Austin'roses are indeniably the most beautiful English roses but they have one defect : they are quite subject to desease like blackspots. But we forgive them because they have such strong perfume. I love them and I live with them long ago.
Your rose blooms are exquisite, Carolyn. And, I so enjoyed the tour of your garden.
The pictures of your family are lovely. Thank you for sharing.
Very beautiful!
LOVELY PHOTOS :)
Hugs from Sweden

wonderful !
Oh just beautiful Carolyn! SO pretty in the window.
I loved the pictures of your beautiful kids. Emily has two darlings and you must enjoy them so much.
hugs
Is there anything you cannot grow, Miss Carolyn? Such lovely roses! My favorite is the white with the yellow spray center. So dramatic. But, of course, all the roses are beautiful.
Paris? London? No way. PEI is the only place I must visit before the Good Lord takes me home. Hope to make the trip sooner rather than later. :)

I AM SO GLAD YOU DON'T HAVE ALLERGIES! The smells around your house mustbepure perfume! These photos are so beautiful!
Your pictures are so much prettier than the ones in the catalog! Next year I know which ones I want to plant because of your excellent skill in showing the delicate beauty! Thank you so much for sharing with us! ♥♫

Hi Carolyn: I amagine your roses smell as wonderful as they look. They are gorgeous. Thought the Regis and Kelly might be over for a tour and some tea.
Your roses are so absolutely gorgeous that I can't stand it. It makes me want to cry when I see their perfection. Such BEAUTY!!! Only a Great Creator could create such deliciousness!!
Sorry if I sound a bit soppy, but it's true!
Hugs, Cindy S
Your blog is brilliant and beautiful and I'm now following along. I will return again and again for more incredible inspiration from your delightful creativity and style! I'm a David Austen rose fanatic and am glad to meet another soul who appreciates their deliecate beauty! Stop by sometime, even though I'm not a professional photographer, I just try to capture life around me. Blessings, Roz @ La Bella Vita
Your flowers are gorgeous, and your pictures are terrific! Do you take your own pics and can you share any tips on how to take such clear beautiful photos?
All your roses are so beautiful, one of a kind, but these ones are the most delicate I have ever seen... and your pictures are a tribute to the delicate things, wonderful!!!
