There was a wimpy row of white roses next to a little fence along the side of our property when we bought it. How bland and boring it was! I love vibrant colors. There was plenty of room between them, or so I thought, so we filled in the gaps on anniversaries with colorful roses. I bought Mr. Lincoln for Eric. He bought Peace for me. Each of the first years we were here we bought two more roses. The last was a pink rose paid for by my MIL. Being unable to care for them, our roses have grown into a wall. Luckily, our neighbors love it as much as we do.

You can see the hacked dead hibiscus next to the garage and a play thing of our neighbor child in the back.
