Musings on cats, travel, gardens and life
I love roses and try my best to grow them in my garden. It’s not always easy. The shrubs can become scrawny and the leaves spoiled by blackspot. The buds may be few or may not open at all. Last year I took out the more troublesome ones and moved the others to my garden beds in back where they get more sunshine.
They seem to like the change – especially the orange and yellow ones which are my favorites.
So I persist.

Beautiful!
Thanks so much! 🙂
Glad to hear that your roses made you forget about Mr Trump, Susanne. 🙂
Best wishes, Pete.

Wonderful, especially the last full yellow bloom.
Thanks. The orange ones should open in the next few days.
These are lovely:)
Thank you so much!😊
Your roses are beautiful! I had roses that did well once, years ago, but since then I’ve never been able to get them to grow. 🤔🌸🌸
Thank you! They do seem to be finicky! I was happy to see them doing well this year – at least so far!
Yes it could be the soil…I’ve also read that roses thrive on neglect? In that case my yard should be full of them! 😂
I know they like lots of sunshine which we have in the summer here. But I don’t think they like all the rain the rest of the year. Just like me! 😁
