Happy October!
October has arrived--my favorite month. The weather (finally!) cools down, sweaters come out, the leaves turn, pumpkins are in season, candy corn is on display in the stores(which always will remind me of you, CAD), pumpkin spice lattes can be savored at Starbucks :). All is well.
This is also the last real bloom before winter--the last roses of summer, so to speak. Here are two of my favorites that are currently in bloom in our garden:
Tommy Cairns, which has a bit of a ghostly cast to it. That's not a reflection, it's actually white on the outside of the petals.
Diana, Princess of Wales--affectionately referred to as the "Turlock Rose" because that's where I found her last winter. (Forgive the evidence the insect attack. I think I have it under control. Organic gardening is a bit of a challenge, but worth it.)
And lastly, don't forget to change your wallpaper at Kate.net. Enjoy! (It's free!)

Your roses look AMAZING! I have battled black spots all summer but organic gardening in Texas just doesn't happen, LOL!
Speaking of Starbucks . . . I went for the first time in my life yesterday and they offered that Pumpkin Spice drink but went with a Carmel Frappachino (however you spell that) .. . yummy and a bad habit is developing I think!
