2022-2024 MY FAVORITE OLD GARDEN ROSES
Comments (403)SoCalGardenNut, Beautiful La Reine! Yay, 5 blooms! She has tge most girgeous blooms & fragrance! Don’t forget to smell her fab fragrance! That’s so exciting that you have a Mme Isaac Pereire! I draw designs of whete ai wish to plant my rosrs so I can look at the design and know which rose is planted thete when I first plant. I keep plastic labels on them, too, if they have them. Eventually I memorize them. Your La Reine doubds very promusibg with 5 blooms! She has really beautiful blooms! I live La Reine & Isaac Pereire! Berry, A 4ft La Reine is wonderful! I am really thinking Zi want to move mine out of it’s pot! Next spring! My La Reine had about 15 blooms first flush.

Comments (7)I'll try to take photos if I go to any of the Modernism Week events, but the Kaufmann house garden tour (which I won't be able to do) does not allow cameras for some reason. I did know that Kaufmann had also commissioned FLW to build Fallingwater. The Neutra house in Palm Springs was designed as a winter residence only, I believe, and so it was renovated by subsequent owners to make it habitable all year. Fortunately, the latest owners have restore it to Neutra's designs, as much as possible, while keeping habitable all year. I've been spending a fair amount of my time here in the summer, and I have found it very livable, since I have a pool - otherwise I would not consider it. My sister is arriving this afternoon and will stay with us for five days. I was thinking of taking her on a drive-by tour of the Kaufmann house, and also of Bob Hope's house, designed by John Lautner, another architect that I especially like. Bob Hope's wife Delores did not like Lautner's design, and she forced him to make some unfortunate changes in the design. The first change was to make the roof wood instead of concrete, but that roof burned (for two days), and so they ended up with a concrete roof anyway. Our roof here is made of concrete tiles, and I have not seen any wooden roofs in this area at all....See MoreSpring 2024 Plant Swap - May 11 - Who Can Come?

Comments (15)Thank you, Hoang Ton, for the quite fabulous spring rose tour of your beautiful garden. I surprised myself by being most impressed by the stunning Lady in Red climber, which I know nothing about. What a gorgeous way to welcome visitors to your house. Also impressive were the Iceberg hedge, Raold Dahl, Jubilee Celebration, the great color of Lady of Shalott, and the many rose companions you grow so well. I loved the vignettes you captured in your video. You've got a lot of lovely views to just stare at. Thanks. Diane...See MoreArtist-FKA-Novice Zone 7B GA
