This is where I got my love of gardening from, my Mom. She'll be 80 next month and is very active in her beautiful garden. We spent a nice but short afternoon talking plants and I dug a hole and planted her new Lady of Shallot rose. Her back prevents her from any heavy digging and lifting otherwise it goes into spasms.
Photos aren't the best, it was hard to get the right lighting with bright full sun and some shadows from big trees.

Her front porch has these two beautiful Eureka in full bloom. I lost mine to a gopher, need to get one, or even two, again!

My hubby built her this wonderful arbor, she has Austin's Malvern Hills planted on both ends. The left one was planted probably a year later so is still small.
