A Rose by Any Other Name......

Some can even disagree on flowers.

Not too long ago I wrote a post about some pretty flowers and thought  No One Will Disagree With Me On This Subject!

 But a couple of commenters let me yellow was not their favorite color. In fact Russel Ray even talked about two stray yellow roses in his garden, He found them  a nuisance and even with weed spray,  could not kill them. I called and suggested he clip those two roses and make a present to someone who might enjoy them. And do it each time those annoying flowers bloomed. Now I wonder if he ever did that.

Then yesterday my Lee, TLH, brought me a bouquet with lots of colors. Rose Bouquet HomeRome RealtySo I thought maybe I can make two different arrangements... one with and one without the yellow ones. Would I then please everyone?

 

 

                Here is the whole bouquet in my kitchen sink.

    And then an arrangement using the yellow ones .

                                     Guess these are prettier..what do you think?

      I happen to like all those colors but do think the one without the yellow is much prettier. In a week they will be gone and I just might be lucky enough to get another bouquet!

I have to agree the one without yellow roses looks better.

I love the first one. Of course I am partial to those colors anyway. Thanks for sharing. Your husband is very sweet to you. Enjoy.

I think I like the last one best. The bright colors are cheery after a day of reloading my crashed laptop 2/3 of the way.

Hi Margaret...Love yellow.  After all it is sunshine and happiness and light and bright but must agree they are not mingling well with the other roses.

I like both.. I have to admit that yellow roses by themselves or with white roses are beautiful..  I am open to accepting roses of any color from anyone  LOL

I think they're all lovely, Margaret, but I agree with you.  The bouquet with the pink, orange and red really stands out.

I have a yellow in my front yard called Midas Touch and you can smell it from about 4 feet away.  I have a purple one in the back yard called Ebb Tide and you can smellit everywhere in the back yard, even 25 feet away.  I love them both, and all your roses are gorgeous!

Evelyn, Would love to see some photos of your prize roses. Bet those two colors would make a pretty arrangement.

Jack...but it gave me reason for yet another post.

Sally, Maybe I can hint for some different roses like daisy. I'll give it a try.

Robin, Glad to see you smiling. Not much to do with real estate but it does bring a bit of humor and beauty in our lives.
