While she likes eating edibles, she'd much rather look at flowers.Jamiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14653345793213312242noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7797396120087729156.post-38203311266014787482018-08-26T05:56:37.224+10:002018-08-26T05:56:37.224+10:00Hello Jamie (& the missus, too !)
You seem to...Hello Jamie (& the missus, too !)<br /><br />You seem to have quite a collection of plants, many 've never heard of. Being a lazy gardener, and yet to reach high gear after ceasing work, I just grow whatever comes my way, or I already know the name of so go find one. <br /><br />This second year of my fledgling garden has me a bit surprised at what does flower in the cold months. <br /><br />Down the street one of the few surviving "old fashioned" front yards has a row of rose bushes all merrily producing amazing blooms - as far as I could tell all through winter! And for months after I apparently in error pruned mine (my first time ever acquired and planted in a garden roses!) back to almost nothing. <br /><br />Apparently I've nothing else in flower except the Jasmine which broke out this week. The wisteria next to it is so dormant its snoring keeps us awake at night.<br /><br />So your lovely pics are a handy inspiration to do more on the flowering front. My initial emphasis was edibles. Now for some pretty stuff around the edges.<br /><br />Keep posting. <br />Phil<br /><br />Phil in Newynoreply@blogger.com
