Since all of my gardening books are still packed away in boxes, I came online to refresh my knowledge on pruning roses. I only have one bush and honestly I haven’t had a good enough look at it to even know what type of bush it is. I guess that’s the first step.
I don’t suppose anyone can tell from this close-up what kind of rose this is?


I know it’s still early but I’ve been dying to get outside and play in the dirt. There’s still a fair bit of clean-up that needs to be done. If only the weather and my children would cooperate. Domink is 16 months has been walking proper for about a month but has also had a nagging cold all month and is very clingy. That makes gardening a little challenging.

That is a gorgeous rose – although I don’t know what kind it is.
I remember that time of clinginess due to not feeling well … and the relief when my son finally got into playing something for a spell or fell asleep!
