LADY IN WHITE

At the moment my climbing rose GUIRLANDE D’AMOUR looks like a lady in a weddingdress who wears a lovely perfume. My whole garden smells of her !

THIS IS HOW SHE LOOKED  LIKE ABOUT LESS THAN 2 WEEKS AGO

SHE STARTED SLOW, ONLY A FLOWER HERE AND THERE

A FEW DAYS LATER SHE LOOKED LIKE THIS

AND HERE SHE IS IN FULL BLOOM LOOKING LIKE A  REAL BRIDE

THE SMELL OF ROSES

I haven’t been blogging for a while but I just needed a break. There is so much to do at the moment that I just don’t know what to do first. I think you all know what I mean.

But the roses are starting to bloom so I had to take some pictures for you to see, pitty you can’t smell them !!

ROSA CONSTANCE SPRY ( soft pink climbing rose with horrible thorns !!)

ROSA THE PILGRIM (low  yellow climbing rose)

 

AND LOOK AT ALL THESE BUDS !!!!(climbing rose GUIRLANDE D’AMOUR, half dubble white)

I have more roses in bud so by next week I’m sure they’ll be open, we are having hot and very dry weather, last night we had a thunderstorm with a bit of very welcome rain.

Have a great week and thanks for visiting !

TODAY IN MY GARDEN

PROBABLY THE LAST FLOWER OF THE PILGRIM ROSE

FUCHSIA

THIS RUSSIAN VINE IS RACING THROUGH MY GARDEN

ROSA GUIRLANDE D’AMOUR STILL BUDDING AND FLOWERING AND SMELLING OF ROSES

PICTURES OF MY GARDEN

We are having a heathwave ! We go from cold to hot in one day, we can’t cope with it nor can the plants. And it has been extremely dry for a while, we live on sandy gound that dries out very quickly.But never the less, I enjoy it, everything grows and grows, with a little help of the waterhose ofcourse. We can eat outside morning, noon and evening with a nice view on the whole garden. What more do you want ??!
