Comments (47)Christopher, it doesn't repeat. I'd never heard of La Diaphane before so perhaps it was never grown in Sweden? My rose does indeed look similar. Mine is quite short but I don't know how it would behave in a better location. I didn't rustle it, it was a gift from someone who did. I dug up other roses myself from this old garden at the agricultural university, an old and good clone of New Dawn, Alba Meidiland, Katharina Zeimet and a huge red single rugosa I am using to shut out the sight of a new house with an orange roof. I get angry whenever I think of this lost garden, an educational garden aimed at both students and the public. There was a large rose garden of old and new roses I got to know for the first time. I learnt so much here as a beginning gardener, for instance from the trial beds with cabbages grown with different manures or none at all, or about composting. I've never grown cabbages but I learnt about feeding plants....See MoreMore rose pictures...join me!
Comments (612)@Diane Brakefield Diane, what beautiful views! I love the light/color with the snow. I'm sorry you lost your cat. Persians are such beautiful animals. Fish/Seaweed only smells a little when I pour it into my spray bottle. Once it's watered down and sprayed, it doesn't seem as noticeable. I got sick of spraying the roses with the egg mix I was making and just stopped at one point over the summer. It's hard for me to say which repellent idea has worked best....I tried to mix them up. I read somewhere that if you throw deer off of their paths through your yard, they'll remember and stay away once they've changed their path/direction. I'm hoping that my yard stays on their "rotten egg/fish/milorganite avoid!" radar for at least a few more years ;) Earlier this summer after spraying the roses and putting milorganite down...I was 99% sure it worked. Hadn't seen a deer all spring when they're around most. Then one morning I woke up and saw a big deer up up on the outside of my fence, right in front of those 8 climbing roses on the fence line. Went outside and the big deer moved slowly into the woodline and then I noticed a little baby deer curled up. I backed off and kept my dog in the backyard for a week or two, let the mom raise the baby deer. Every morning I'd look out my windows and make sure the baby was still there curled up in the grass. The mom would come back every sunset to feed it and sleep with it. Eventually the baby could walk and marched into the woods with the mom. They never touched the roses though.... even if they did, I would have had a hard time getting upset with the two of them. @rosecanadian - I would looooove a blanket or sweater made of my sheepadoodles hair! Sometimes when I'm petting him I have to remind him that he's lucky I'm not Cruella. They have such soft hair hah....See MoreMy Rose Garden 2022 Year3
Comments (57)I’m so ready for my peonies to bloom!!! Their season is short but I would not be without them! @kate it was a very warm winter, I have already pruned in February and starting to fertilize now with plant tone. I tend to over fertilize so please don’t listen to me 🤪🤪. I have my schedule saved somewhere but I basically do plant tone and fish fertilizer now, once they are leafed out I start with spray liquid fertilizer (kelp+ maxsea) or something like that whenever I have a chance (every week or 2weeks) If the rose struggled last year I would probably add a slow release fertilizer now too…. This year I will add neem oil and jacks captain to my sprayer to see if I can get thrips under control...See More2022-2024 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. However a ”larger La Reine” will probably have twice as many blooms!...See MoreSheila z8a Rogue Valley OR
