Mosaic Monday: Hyde Park Rose Garden








Last year when my daughter and I went to London, the rose garden at Hyde Park was not quite in bloom yet.  This year, it was blooming with exuberant abandon.  The fragrance was amazing!  My family took a short break from our epic, eight-mile sightseeing hike to let me shoot a few photos.  :)  Such a beautiful garden!

Here are the instructions to join today's post:

  2. What a wonderful trip and to enjoy those brief photo shoots sounds divine. I wish you had smell a vision on your blog. Although I would have to admit 8 miles I would be stopping more than briefly to make it through. So happy to be rejoining your Monday party thanks for continuing your good work.

  5. This is gorgeous. I visited Hyde Park a while back but it was during that transitions between winter and spring so nothing was blooming but I remember how much I loved it. I can only imagine if I had seen it blooming like this. Thank you for sharing with us.

  13. Hyde Park Garden, and Roses, I have heard about but never seen any of their blooms. So, so pretty and you always make the prettiest presentations too!
    I am letting everyone know, as some have sent messages... I'll be back next week. Having some difficulty adjusting to new medication and old ones, but will in time~

  18. Hi Mary! Gorgeous photos. The last one of the roses, with some of them fading, gives me hope that even THOSE gardeners can't keep up with dead heading all the time! I am pea green that you got to England TWICE in two years. I haven't been since 2004, and am having withdrawal .... but meanwhile I will enjoy the stellar weather NJ is having. Ain't it grand? I've got baby tomatoes and baby peppers growing, and Gilda is eating all the blossoms off any plants she can reach. Happy summer! -- Cass

  20. Just so beautiful, Mary! sigh. =) I think that what I want for my birthday (which we agreed we would celebrate when I was alive again ;) ) is to visit someplace beautiful with a garden so that I can just take pictures. You and Jose Villa in Italy have convinced me of the need! ;)

    =) xxo
