Wow....what heartbreaking pics...it looks like the powers that be at Fairmount Cemetery, despite all the lip service about "caring" about the Old Roses and Mystery roses, have removed EVERY rose from their Riverside Cemetery where I spent years studying the roses there discovered by now-deceased Denver rosarian Toni Tichy....the pics at the link break my heart. I am so glad that Toni cannot see this.
Toni was my birth mother and I'm glad, too, that she didn't see this. When we first reunited in the 1990s, she took me to Fairmount to see "her" roses. I also have a "Mr. Nash" climber in front of my house, a gift from Toni. Thank you for your love of roses and your fond memories of Toni.
