Beautiful Pink Roses

These are two beautiful pink roses that David's mum Beverly brought from her house. She lives alone near Ballina in NSW, and grows her own fruit, veggies and flowers, including roses, all the while working as a nurse at a local nursing home. I think she said this species is "Tiffany". I particularly liked the fragrance, so I hope we could grow me some of our own! These smelt so beautiful and were so lovely to have in our home, I made the petals into a pot pourri.

Also, outside my front door are some very pretty pinks flowering at the moment. I'm not sure, but they might be a variety of native lilly pilly.

Yay for PINK!

  4. Hi Teena!
    Thank you for your visit and nice comment!!
    I love those pink roses and they are so pretty simply displayed in a glass!
    We do not have Lilly Pilly but wish we did because they look so sweet and I love the name :-)
    Enjoy a glorious Sunday!
