Roses of Reiman Gardens















We finally managed to get to Reiman Gardens last Friday. I love going there! The butterfly house and the gardens are a very pleasant place to spend some time. For those of you familiar with Reiman's magazines (Taste of Home, Birds and Blooms, Country and many more), Ray Reiman graduated from Iowa State University, he decided to donate a large sum of money to create the gardens and butterfly house. The butterfly house is as nice as the one at Calloway Gardens in Georgia. It is a wonderful place to take pictures.
I have lots of other pictures also :).

Lovely flowers. The garden must be stunning in person! Thanks for posting. Was looking at your earlier posts and really enjoyed seeing the flowers "altered" in Paint Shop Pro. How fun!!

The sun is shining in your part of the country. We are looking at rain and cannot get the yard mowed. I loved your roses. This must've been a fun trip. Andrea

For a moment there I thought the photos were of your garden. I had serious rose envy. ;) What wonderful roses.
