John Paul II, We Love You!



They are not fully bloomed yet, but I just couldn't wait!!! There they stand, so straight and proud--- just like the man as I remember him. Their fragrance is heavenly! I could smell it all day and never tire.

  1. Hey Matilda, where did you get your JPII roses?

  2. I ordered it from this place. They send them in bare root form. We soaked it in water overnight and stuck it in the ground. I seriously can't believe I haven't killed it yet!

  3. Sweet. thanks... we've been looking for one for a while now. I had a big beautiful GRACE rose bush in the front that would only produce one bloom in the front, so I decided to move it to the back with another bush I have that does really well... and unfortunately it didn't survive... so now I'm ready for a replacement.

  5. When the OLG roses go into bloom post pictures...isn't it wonderful to have roses named for Catholic things instead of celebrities!
