for everyone
Here in Tyler, TX, they are the largest grower of roses in the United States, and at the Museum Garden they exhibit over 500 different roses. What you see here is only the tip of the iceberg so to speak.

I lived in Shreveport years ago and I used to love to visit Tyler. If I recall at Christmas time they had a beautiful display in the town square. I also caught the train from Tyler when I when I wanted a leisurely trip back to visit Mn.and I never failed to visit the rose garden. Thanks for the memories.

What a lovely album of roses

Two photos the same - one called Candelabra, one called Dublin. Are there two different kinds in the picture? My favorite is Queen Elizabeth, a delicate pale pink. Also I love the old fashioned wild roses which grow along fence lines on the country roads.

My step-sister was married in a Rose Garden in Ft.Worth (I think) in about 1986. It was a beautiful day, a beautiful place, and I was surprised there weren't weddings lined up to take place then & there.

I love flowers. Beautiful pictures. We are planting a variety of roses common to South Georgia called Knock Out roses. They bloom all the time down here. It takes a hard freeze to even stop them from blooming.
