Fragrant Plum_DSC3438

I don't often pick my roses, because I prefer to see them in the garden. As our maximum for tomorrow is forecast to be 40 (105F), I've picked a lot of my roses, because they wouldn't survive the heat. My house smells lovely :)
Thank you all for your lovely comments on my frangipani.
Better viewed on black.
