Everyone had a good giggle as this was never the last rose - there always seemed to be another no matter how cold and frosty her Etobicoke garden became. It was only when the snow flew - that everyone knew for a fact - that it was indeed the last rose of the year. Love the fact that you appreciate these little jewels inside right up to the end.Barbarapchttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09990013417063903768noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7116278351699614429.post-17820795956517381242010-11-09T05:50:24.380-08:002010-11-09T05:50:24.380-08:00Jennifer I can say that I stand by my Morden Sunri...Jennifer I can say that I stand by my Morden Sunrise for surpassing any test it has gone through for being hardy and springing to life no matter what has gone on. My one and only David Austin is the William Shakespeare rose that smells utterly DIVINE : ) and it has kept up with the others even in its first year !<br />I understand what you meant about the landscaping cloth .. Millar our landscaper laid an unbelievable tough one under the new smaller patio .. no ants not anything can penetrate it other than water .. so it does make the world of difference ! Good luck with changing that over .. once it is done it will be perfect !<br />Joy : )CanadianGardenJoyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18130452541076704075noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7116278351699614429.post-39234547135988020852010-11-08T21:08:41.374-08:002010-11-08T21:08:41.374-08:00Beautiful Roses!

When I walked the dogs through my neighbourhood yesterday I was very surprised to see how many gardens had roses that still had blooms. And they are hardier then I would expect because I know for a fact that these roses are in gardens of people who don't provide any special treatment to their plants ~ it's as though they survive on neglect! Have a great day!Lisa ~Suburban Retreat~https://www.blogger.com/profile/10119349730386156556noreply@blogger.com
