Your property must be full of roses!  

Thank you, keyten! Fritzy, my front yard has a pretty good number of bushes! It faces south and is grand for my rose garden!  

M fav is yellow. I want to scratch and sniff my phone but it didn’t work, sadly. lol 

So Beautiful, I can smell them. Your green thumb inspires me.  

Wifey, how is your yellow rose doing? Heat makes them grow quickly, but the blooms fade just as fast! Thank you, caraken!  

It’s still in the pot. 🤦🏻‍♀️🤷🏻‍♀️I came to learn that it has three different bushes in there, I’ve seen yellow bloom, peach and a whiteish. They are growing fast and tall and blooming a lot but the heat destroys them quickly. I admire that little thing and it makes me think of you every single day, true story. So tell me this, what do I do with it when Fall comes and then Winter???? 🥺🥺🥺 

Moving down and spreading beauty along the way! Gorgeous 🎵Yellow Rose(s) of Texas🎶 Hahaha! My bridal bouquet was white roses. 💛 

Whoa! That is awesome, wifey! I have never had a potted rose, so I am not knowledgeable about what you should do. We are temperate enough around here that I do nothing in the fall but trim off the outer foliage that might catch the wind and rock the plant too much. I do a harsh pruning in early spring. Anything that was damaged by frost in the winter is on the tips. If you freeze a lot, you will need to protect it with some cover. If you find your zone and and look up rose care, you can find out good information to keeping your pretty bush happy!  

Amazing drop and such stunning roses!! Yellow are my favorite. 😍 

I love yours,! I have them too but of course in Vegas it's to hot for anything to grow right now.. 💜🌹 

Thank you, Shir! I absolutely thought of you, "our" rose of Texas, when I took this picture! 😁 I have no white roses, although I really wanted to get one this year that is white with just a pink or red fringe. I just am so busy with what I have I'm a bit afraid to make an addition!  

Thank you, newnameMM and Diana! I have two yellow rose bushes. This one has a real true lemon color and doesn't really fade much. The other is almost light orange in the spring, and as the summer progresses the blooms get more and more yellow. Diana, I am sorry your roses are too hot! Wifey is too! 😁  

Thanks Melissa. I’ll google to see what I can do. I’m not a florist at all. 🙄 

I just saw this post. Thank you so very much! I'm making it my screen saver. You're the BEST😘 

Awww! You're welcome! ☀️I wish you could smell them too! This bush is soooooo fragrant! 😁
