David Austin Roses
Nothing done in the garden since the beginning of the week. Needed to get some interior decorating done! Nothing more exciting than painting the kitchen I may add! I always say I will do jobs like that when the weather is too wet to garden, but there always seems to be some job that can be done outside no matter what the weather. Anyway it is nearly finished now so I can get back to the garden tomorrow!!!
But tonight I will enjoy a little 'armchair gardening'! My copy of David Austin Handbook of Roses has arrived and Im looking forward to selecting a rose or two to grow near my new entrance in that new space. I know, I know(!) I always say I wont buy any more roses as they are hard work but there is something irresistable about them!!! And nothing has the WOW factor like them in June and early July. Would be interested in hearing what some of your favourite roses are? The one I have that is my favourite is a yellow rose with a great perfume but grown from a cutting I dont have a name for it! the best named one that I have is Compassion.
