Augusta Luise, one of my perfect roses
Comments (25)This conversation about AL makes me VERY happy I put her where I did. I do not have many truly good spots for roses; my soil is surprisingly alkaline and hard clay plus excessive tree roots and lots of shade. The spot she is in has good loam and good sun. She does seem to like this spot and I hope moving her a couple of weeks ago (condensing roses to make more room for roses) doesn’t throw her off. The move was only about three feet so conditions should be the same. She is probably my most coveted rose and I really want her to grow up to look like Diane’s!...See MoreAugusta Luise, another perfect rose
Comments (7)Beautiful pics, I especially like the 2nd to last pic...such a complex center with all the swirling colors. And I always enjoy a full plant pic....amazing it can grow so well in such a narrow space, I only see that in California, it seems....See MoreAugusta Luise on own roots?
Comments (25)I had no idea you were still dealing with snow, Flowers. Ugh. Here, it hasn't been especially warm, but I'm going full bore pruning. I swore I'd only prune 10 roses this year, and compare them to the non pruned ones. Well, that didn't happen because if you put me near some pruners, I am compelled to do a full prune. I hate it. The punctures, scratches, ripped up clothing, and wearing that d**m hoodie to protect my head are awful. Then I come inside with a totally squashed hairdo. Plus I look like some alien being in my big ripped up corduroy coat. You can't imagine how awful I look when I prune. OK. Rant over. Are you going to do the full prune thing? We're too old for that stuff. Diane...See MoreCrazy love and Augusta Luise
Comments (34)They are sweet, they have to hear me drone on and on about the garden which I know they don't care for lol but at least they paid attention to the plants I've been talking about a lot lately haha. My son was especially eager to buy a gift for me which I think is just heart-melting. He's 7 and my wild one so he doesn't always remember to be appreciative, but today he was so sweet whispering to my husband about getting me the gift 😭 and it's good that they each picked one out, now I've got one for each of them to remember for many years (hopefully), if I'm lucky maybe they'll be incredible mature clems one day when my kids are grown, and they will help me feel close to them still. My son picked "Comtesse de Bouchad" and my daughter picked "Asao". @Kristine LeGault 8a pnw...See More
