My first Rugosa bloom and buds of 2014 (the little white flowers are Santa Barbara Daisies). It's a Jen's Munk that I planted about 3 years ago. The plant's only about 18" high, but maybe this year...

Shanny, it looks like you have a bit of Eden going on! That geranium is lovely. We planted a border of trailing geranium (pelargonium) around the exterior of the rose garden and found, to our great...

Linda - pictures are required :p. I wish I had room for a Damascus or any of the larger old roses. I've had to move all the roses that survived the drought-driven deer raid of the past couple of...

We, too, have a cat who seems to have a yen for plants. He nibbles the leaf edges so they all look serrated. His most recent favorite is a diefennbachia. Poor thing (and I don't mean the...
