Sacramento has a large, original city cemetery, where a group of volunteers have planted and tended
a collection of old roses for some fifteen or twenty years now. I used to work with them when i first retired,
but eventually drifted away up into the foothills. Anyway, I spent several enjoyable hours there today.


Autumn Damask (heavily scented)


A large and well established plant of the yellow Lady Banks rose




Souvenir de Malmaison ( a Bourbon, also heavily scented)

It's unfortunate that we do not have scratch and sniff on the internet. Maybe it's just as well.
