Merry Christmas friends!
2022! An amazing garden year. We started the year with an article in the wonderful @gardengatemagazine and ended the year with an article in the beautiful @americanrosesociety annual edition… with loads of blooms (and a few pesky pests) in between! #grateful
🎄OUR TREE… may be small in size but it’s large on twinkles and dried gifts from the garden. (Dried flowers are roses, celosia, hydrangeas, sea holly, strawflowers) #Christmas #driedflowers #gardening #cottagegarden #cottagestyle #bloomthymecottagegarden #bloomthyme #roses
💐💐What an honor to have an article in the @americanrosesociety 2022 Annual edition. Guest editor @elenawilliams195 did a fabulous job - every article is fantastic. Congratulations to all contributors! This magazine is one of many great ARS member benefits! If you are not a member go to Rose.org and check it out! 🌹🌹🌹
Numbers matter! This week we’ve gone from 70° to 29°. Today’s high is 37°! So glad the plants in the Potting Shed are a warm and snug at 67°. Regardless of the numbers… have a wonderful day.

ABOUT ME…

I know that to everything there is a season, but I’m a gardener and I start counting the days until spring the day after Christmas. I live and grow in Zone 5b where I care for my large garden of roses and their companions. Read on here.
