FOTD – August 16 – Rose
Some roses are definitely rosier than others. Some are romantic, some are exciting, others smell like heaven. So when is a rose not a rose?

SERENDIPITY: SEEKING INTELLIGENT LIFE ON EARTH 
Lovely roses Marilyn. It’s the season to plant them here and I hope to get to the nursery to get some more. I still have my two potted ones. They have had a hard time for most of the six years I’ve had them. I hardly got any flowers last summer. But I’ve pruned them again, moved the pots to somewhere I hope the possums won’t get them and they are getting new leaves so fingers crossed I’ll get flowers this summer.
I recently read a magazine article that said possums and wallabies like roses. We get both in the garden. I hoped they would have a solution to the problem. It said, plant peonies instead. I would love to have some peonies, they are very expensive to buy, but I still want roses so that’s not a solution for me.

Thanks Cee. Some are from bouquets Garry brought home, some are the ones we usually grow. Not this year, but maybe next summer.

I was thinking that today. I have a few unfinished ones. My arm has been bothering me, but I miss the drawings too. So maybe I’ll go finish the ones I started and see what else I might want to do.

That’ll be great. Drawing can put a strain on the wrist
