Don't you just love all the wonderful smells different roses have? I am the person who you see at the stores and garden centers with my nose stuck in all the roses checking them all out.

I don't have this rose, but it's one I sniff a lot. :D

Great pictures too by the way.

That is one the great roses. An old, tried and true tea rose.

And yes the lighting was just right.. so you can almost smell them from the pics.

They do have a 'sweet' scent!

So, Terryo must have been reading my mind ;) . I leaned in and I swear I could smell it. Truly they are Beautiful pics Terry. I wish they made this one in miniature. My Landlady HATES roses so I can't plant them in the ground. I just raise miniatures in pots now.

Do you happen to have Circus Clown or maybe it's Clown Circus? It's an older mini that I really liked.

If you've never been to a butterfly house.. find one - they land on your hand. Focus on a flower and it doesn't take long before one lands on it! Ya gotta be quick tho'...
