Did you know?

...that NCSU has one of the premier rose research programs?

They do--which is why Raleigh has such a beautiful rose garden.

WANT!

Someday I hope I have a yard that looks like that.

Ha! I just realized that post sounded like those were my personal roses. I wish!

These are the Raleigh Rose Garden roses. The photos don't do them justice. I can't imagine the labor involved in making so many roses bloom like that.

I, too, want a yard that looks like that someday. Maybe when we move back to the farm in Missouri.

I knew that.

I used to hang out there when I was a depressed goth chick.

(picture me there in leather jacket and sunglasses. In June. Sweating. Because it's too warm to wear a leather jacket in the rose garden in June. But we must be Gloomy!)
