Roses are red,

and a wide variety of lovely colors!   So many varieties to admire and grow!  I've grown hybrids and shrub roses and prefer the ease of the shrub roses at this stage of my life!  (easy maintenance mode)

This is Rita's favorite rose.  It is a shrub rose!  

Today I ran across this great video on deadheading roses and encourage you to take a few minutes to learn or refresh your memory on how to deadhead roses to get more blooms!
