Daffodils Among the Dortmund Sisters

I visited the Dortmund roses late afternoon yesterday. Their glossy deep green leaves sparkled in the low sunlight. Yellow daffs dance at their feet.
Here they are -- my Dortmund climbing roses. They have names. From left to right (north to south): Carla, Wanda, Penny, Mary, Heidi and Martha. They are rose ladies who will spread their thorny stems along the split rail fence and explode with red petal bunches this summer.
The ladies. My sisters. I am blessed.
