Pink Saturday - August 8, 2009

Happy Pink Saturday!

My pink contribution for this Pink Saturday is this wonderful pink rose, Granada.  Don't you love the variation in the colors, and it changes colors during the bloom phases.

This week we have one hundred fifty-eight (158) participants in Pink Saturday.  There are five 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 noon EST Wednesday.  If you don't see your name and link here it is because I did not receive your plan for participating by that time.  As I explained in my e-mail, I needed your response early this week because I was without a computer Thursday and Friday.

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 love this, particularly as I adore pink. Will sit down later and go through all the posts. Thank you for organising such a lovely idea. I had a look at your earlier post but can't find out I could go about participating? Sorry if I've missed it as I'm sure you get asked this all the time x

[Vicki Thompson]

Hi, Beverly,
That rose is exquisite. I feel like I could almost reach out and touch it and smell it. Thank you for hosting us each week. I know this week has been topsy turvy for you with the new construction in your office. Thank you for taking the time and effort to host Pink Saturday. Vicki

[bj]

Beautiful flower!
Aren't you so excited about the Rooster party coming up? We did have such fun with the one you did and I know this one is going to be fun, too. I even already have my post ready..only problem....I keep finding another rooster here and there and have to go back and add it. :O)
Thanks for continuing to host this PINK day...
xo bj

happy pink living!

Sarah

I am always amazed at your knowledge of roses, Beverly! Have a great weekend, and stop by my book giveaway if you have time this week.

[Sandra~RomantiqueInspirations~]

Hi Beverly, You can never go wrong with roses no matter what color they are. So Beautiful!

There must be some confusion with my name not being on the list. I emailed you last week to put my name on for this week not for last week. Well anyways I posted today for the pink saturday, so if anybody see this- do drop in for a visit!

[Rini Boer]

Hi Beverly , I wish you a great happy pink Saturday .

Wow, a beautiful pink rose! You always have such pretty pink pictures.
Thanks for hosting this Pink Saturday and for including me on the list even though I was late...

Have a wonderful PINK SATURDAY!

[jeanne]

Good morning Beverly, boy, am I up early or what??? Your rose is so beautiful it takes my breath away. I always love when you post your gorgeous roses. I never tire of their awesome beauty. My knock out roses are blooming and they are pretty small. I am elated to have them. If the bed is finished this week I will post them next Saturday. Yippee, I have some roses. A double pink, what else?

Have a happy day.

Love always...Jeanne

[Mary]

I love the rose, just beautiful. Hope you have a wonderful day.

[Teresa Martens]

Beverly, what a beautiful rose and a great way to start us off on Pink Saturday! I almost feel like I could scratch and sniff that picture! LOL!!

Have a wonderful Pink Saturday,
Teresa the MiniMadWoman

[Florida Sue]

Now that is one beautiful rose.The shading is exquisite. It reminds me of the "Peace" roses I grew in the north. The roses here in Florida languish in the humidity. If it wasn't for the Knockout variety, I would have no roses at all. Still, they just can't compare to your Granada. Happy Pink Saturday to you Beverly, and thank you for allowing me to express my pent up pinkness through your lovely blog!

XOSue

[Jorgelina]

Hi!!

[Terri Morse]

The variations in color give that rose such depth. It's lovely, Beverly! I'm happy to see that there's going to be a rooster day. I even managed to get the button installed with the correct HTML code! I guess I'm going to be painting some roosters this week :). HPS! I hope that you're enjoying your new office.

[LaVoice]
