Roses

A new addition by any other name…

New standard roses for our gardenI got away to the garden center today and returned with what you see here. We seldom need a reason to get more roses for our grounds, but this time I thought some standards would be nice for a change.

You can this latest edition to our garden while in the spa, or just sitting at the table in the bbq area. You can  even  smell them if the breeze is blowing in the right direction.

Banksia in bloom

Banksia Rose in bloomToday I went out to the garden after being away for a while visiting my new Grandson in Auckland, and was struck by the glorious sight of my banksia rose in full bloom.  This is beside the barbeque area and you can also see my paeonies are also in bloom.  Spring is such a delightful time of the year, don’t you think?
