Name: Toni Denver Metro (Zone 5a) Whiskey Tango Foxtrot.
We decided to actually go outside (well, I'm *always* trying to get outside when I'm not at work, but DH isn't much for outdoors) yesterday because the weather was SOOO nice, so we went to City Park, which is near downtown Denver. That's where the Denver Zoo & the Denver Museum of Science & Natural History is at. I'd noticed earlier this year that there was a couple of rose gardens, so I told DH that I wanted to check them out this summer. So we went there yesterday. Very nice roses, well pruned, but almost 100% NO tags! NO idea what rose was what!! And I have a far wider variety than they do... Trying to figure out why there was no mulch or ground cover either. Some pictures of said "formal rose garden".
And some closeups. Some of the roses were their normal dark colors, but had extremely light canes with extremely light leaves on it. Odd.
Downtown Denver with the mountains in the background, plus yesterday's sunset.
