White Eden Roses

I just had to share this....  This is my friend's beautiful garden.  A few years ago we went together to buy roses together on our lunch hour. We had so much fun walking around a huge rose nursery called Regan's Nursery in Fremont, California.  I bought my favorite rose...Pink Eden and Claudia bought a White Eden. It's not totally white though, it has a very soft blush pink center! Gorgeous!!!

Show and Tell Friday!

Mirrors around my Home

Welcome to Show and Tell Friday!  I had planned to share my beautiful pink Eden Roses that are blooming right now but I'm having issues with my camera!  I need to get a new memory card for it...I think I must have worn the old one out!
