Beautiful Flowers

@Sister Sometimes possums snack on my budding roses bur alpacas... Who knew?! The dangers of living in the country!

Not such a problem - as you can see it still has a lot of flowers on it.  No thanks either to our alpaca who likes to escape from his paddock and bite the roses off as he's cruising past.

@Sister Bugger!

Due to the thunderstorms on Friday morning, I have a carpet of rose petals to walk through (climber grown from a cutting of the one my Dad planted about 65 years ago).

Oh that reminds me of my mother in law.  If the weather was warming up she would be outside picking roses before she even had breakfast and they always looked beautiful and some were perfumed as well as!  What joy flowers bring!

@kitkatb What a lovely neighbour you have!

@kmakm ,  what beautiful flowers.  You can just about smell them looking at the pic.  The fragrance would have been lovely on the bedside table.  When I got home from hospital a week and a half ago my neighbour had put a vase of frangipani flowers in my kitchen as soon as I opened the door wow the perfume. 
 

I've just raided the garden. It's going to be 38 disgusting degrees here today, if I hadn't picked them they'd be rose chips by this afternoon.

Thank you @"Annie C". It's actually a pouring jug (beaker shape) that I got quite recently for not much money! Don't ask me where though... I've can't for the life of me recall.

@lrb_03 Their perfume is superb. I slept with them on my bedside table last night. Exquisite fragrance.
