How Sweet The Sound: Pink Saturday

Happy Pink Saturday!

My pink contribution for this Pink Saturday is this gorgeous pink rose bloom, First Prize. It consists of deep rose pink buds of amazing length and spiral grace which open to immense blooms. The inside petals are a lighter shade giving the flower a glowing effect. First Prize was the only AARS winner in 1970, and is one of the most highly rated of all roses. And, not only is it beautiful, it has a wonderful fragrance. I hope you aren't tired of seeing roses.

This week we have one hundred seventy (170) participants in Pink Saturday. There are thirteen new participants, and you will find them at the bottom of the list. Let's all take time to welcome them to Pink Saturday

Please take the time to visit other participants, and leave a comment to let them know you stopped by to enjoy their pink. Pink Saturday is about having fun, and giving us a chance to meet others in the blogging community. I promise you it is worth the effort because you will not only see lots of pink, you will meet incredibly nice and talented people. Please refer to my post dated January 8 for more information about Pink Saturday.

Remember that my reminder e-mail stated I needed your plan for participating today no later than 8 a.m. EST yesterday. If you don't see your name and link here it is because I did not receive your plan for participating by that time.

I want to thank those of you that take the time to leave me a comment. I love reading what you all have to say.

Oh, I would never tire of a beautiful rose! I almost put a picture up of my own pink roses! Instead - I posted about an adorable little pink pig. Thanks Beverly, for another fun Pink Saturday!

Such a beautiful pink rose! I wish I had a garden full of them! And wow 169 participants?! That is fabulous! Kudos to you..hostess with the mostest..literally! Thank you so much for all the work you do for all of us! *hugs*

Posted by: Tina @ Enchanted Rose Studio | June 13, 2009 at 01:54 AM

I'm guessing that rose smells fabulous and as sweet as the flower itself in all its pinkness.

I missed the boat on the deadline but now that I know, I will watch out for this next week.

Posted by: annie | June 13, 2009 at 02:16 AM

Woohoo! My first Pink Saturday entry is up.
Thank you Beverly for having me along.

I nearly put up pink roses for my first post but decided on something else.

I don't think we could ever tire of roses - they're just so beautiful.

ciao for now,
Elena

Posted by: Elena @ EP Designs | June 13, 2009 at 02:43 AM

So beautiful. Captured it greatly.
I really wanted to participate. Pink is one of my fav color. My camera is pink, my shawl, etc.
Looking for a good one to contribute.

Lovely blog.

Thank You for being a lovely "PINK" Hostess.

Beverly...gorgeous pink rose...Pink was never a color I really had or used a lot of, but since I started participating in Pink Saturday, I have started adding pink items to my house and jewelry, etc.

Pink will not replace my purple, but they now sit side by side with my lime green.

Thanks for all you do to hose this day.

Beverly, I could never tire of roses . . . especially when they're as beautiful and pink as yours is! I just planted a 'Queen Elizabeth' rose, she hasn't bloomed yet, but I'm hoping for great things from her!

Thanks for allowing me to participate in my first 'Pink Saturday'. I'm looking forward to many more!

Happy Pink Saturday!

Posted by: Susan | June 13, 2009 at 08:12 AM

I assure you Beverly, we never get tired of your roses. The Prize is a true Prize. I wanted to do a rose post on my roses....they are all pink. I only have four bushes but they are the fairy bushes that spread out and just a couple of days ago there were hundreds of blooms on them but before I could get a photo the rains came...boohoo...they don't look so hot now. Happy Pink Saturday. xo Lynn

Posted by: Lynn Wheeler | June 13, 2009 at 08:22 AM

Beverly, your rose is gorgeous! I wish I was inhaling its scent right now! Although my coffee does smell pretty good!

I didn't forget to link back to you today! I cannot believe I did that. I'm usually so conscientious in doing things like that. It's not as IF I've had a lot on my mind for the past month or so. You're very good at photography also, sugar, and my heart is captured when I see that. Happy pink saturday...........

Posted by: Connie | June 13, 2009 at 08:33 AM

Beverly thank you for hosting yet another PS. Your rose is so lovely! I had roses for about 3 years & then the black spot came & I lost them all. I loved them but, now I live through other gardeners. Thank you for sharing!

Posted by: Charlene | June 13, 2009 at 08:37 AM

Beautiful pink rose, I wish I could smell it too. We are trying to get some growing in our yard but it has been hard to keep them alive through our cold and long winter!

Hi again Beverly, We are lucky to have an 85 yr. old Mom that is sharp as a tack. Until last year, when she had hip replacement, she was still mowing her yard. She was so upset this Spring when she couldn't get down in the dirt and plant her flowers. On Mother's Day we kids went home and did all her planting for her. :) HPS again. xo Lynn

Posted by: Lynn Wheeler | June 13, 2009 at 11:40 AM

I've been following Tristan's Enchanted Revelry for a little while, and decided this morning to join in the Pink Saturday fun. I had no idea it was so well organized! ^-^ If I do it again (and I probably will), I'll be sure to let you know sooner!

Posted by: BunnyKissd | June 13, 2009 at 11:43 AM

First Prize is gorgeous...takes my breath away! Never tire of seeing beautiful flowers of any type! :-) Wish I could smell it...I'll just have to imagine it in my dreams! Susan

Hello Beverly!
I just found you through one of my Norwegian blogfriends... I would have loved to join your PINK Saturday. In fact, my blogpost at www.sweeterhomes.blogspot.com today was titled "All that pink..." So that would have fit perfectly! But now I know, and the next time you hold a party I'll make sure to get invited!

I like your blog and I hope you'll drop by me too... I have two blogs: sweeterhomes and sweeterliving - different, but both sweet;)
Have a wonderful weekend with lots of pink experiences!

Greetings from Norway!

I just cut my first Peonies today. I'm hoping to share them for our next PS. Do you think the girls are tired of seeing them??? well I'm not, because I have been a very jealous girl, sitting here in Canada, cold, and only wanting to go out and garden lol
It's hot and sunny today....yeah.

I'm having a great time with my first Pink Saturday post.

Thank you for your lovely comments Beverly - I'm looking forward to future Pink Saturdays. It's wonderful to meet so many of your lovely friends. I'm slowly working my way through the blogs - they're all amazing.

Thank you again for this opportunity.

ciao for now,
Elena :)

Hi Bev,
What a beautiful rose. Just returning from a trip to Vermont, so I am a bit late with saying Happy Pink Saturday.

Yesterday I added an invitation to Pink Art from Girl Gone Thread Wild to help raise money for breast cancer to my giveaway post.

I hope you have a lovely day.

What a gorgeous rose, Beverly. It certainly does deserve the title of "First Prize"!!

Wow! 170 participants this week!! Is that a record, other than the day we celebrated the First Birthday?

I also love Hang on Sloopy!! :) Ah, what great songs we had Way Back Then!! :)
