I'm so delighted to see one last rose blooming.
This is Dr Jo, named for Dr Jo Taylor, who was head of the Renal Department at Dorset County hospital.
She has flowered all Summer, has a lovely scent and is the perfect colour for a last Autumn arrangement, mixed with some Kaffir lilies which are much the same colour.
There is not much left in the garden now, except a huge bank of the lovely Geranium Rozanne, covered in purple flowers and looking as though it will never end!
not my photo, but from a catalogue.
I do thank you so much for your many messages. I'm much better now and catching up slowly with life in general.
Your comments and emails meant so much to me.
Thank you.

The rose is such a pretty color. Mine are still blooming, but their days are numbered. Glad that you are feeling stronger.
Such a beautiful rose. There is nothing more beautiful to me than a rose.
I've lost almost all of my roses in the last few years to a disease that's sweeping across our country, rose rosette or witches broom. There is not cure for it & very little prevention. Once you get it into your soil you can't grow roses again. So I realize it's just a matter of time before all of my roses are gone.
I'm sad to hear that your roses are dying off.
So happy to know you are doing much better Barbara - still need to rest though while enjoying those beautiful roses!
Take care dear.
A very beautiful rose! I'm happy to hear that you are feeling better.
Dear Barbara,
I am so happy you're doing much better now :) The flowers are fantastic! We still enjoy a wonderful autumn, lovely.
Have a good Sunday & love Carolien
I'm so happy you are on the mend! That orange rose is stunning!!! I finally have some great big blooms on a couple of my bushes. They seem huge to me and so pretty. One has a light pink center with darker pink on the edges...oh, it's magnificent! Love you, my friend!!!
That rose is exquisite. Such a colour! And I'm very happy to hear you are feeling better. Brenda xox
