My "Angel Face" rose bush I planted last year has bloomed it's first flower for this year. This rose bush smells so pretty. The purple/blueish looking plant is called chocolate and it just plain makes me happy. I bought 6 of them last year at Lowe's. They are supposed to spread. I like the splash of color.

On another note, the termite people came this morning at 9:00 and left at 2:00. They drilled, trenched and even sprayed the horrible wasps. Hopefully they will stay gone for awhile. They even came across a 6 foot snake around the back of the house when pulling back the bushes. I heard a yell so now I know what it was all about! They whacked it with a pipe but it still slithered off. They did a really good job on our home.
