FLOWERS OF THE DAY
Although the first run of roses is beginning to fade a bit, it’s still an impressive site out there in our garden, or, as they say around here, GAHDEN. Dump that “r” … we don’t need them in Massachusetts. Bet you can’t find an “r” in there. No “r” in Massachusetts!
It’s really quite impressive. When I took my clippers and attacked the roses, I hoped it might improve them, straggle bunch of brutal thorn bushes that they were. I did not expect this massive response.

Mainly, I REALLY cut them way back. I wasn’t even sure they would bloom. I cut them back almost to the wood main branch. Apparently, they liked it. Go figure 😀

Nice ‘Oses. Wait, you mean the dump the R rule doesn’t work that way?

That is a rather unique way of dealing with it, I grant you. Actually, we add and r at the end of words that don’t have one, like “idear,” remove them in the middle of words, which sometimes makes the word sound like something else entirely.

I was REALLY surprised. One day there wasn’t even a bud. A couple of days later, the entire bush was covered with buds and they all bloomed at once. Sometimes, the magic works.

Hard to believe. Apparently a hard pruning was what they needed.
