La Vie En Rose

Life in pink, in rosy pink hues... 

Pink and heavily scented blooms are in the garden and they never fail to evoke a romantic feeling in me. What a delight to see petals unfurl to gorgeous blooms! Enough to make me float on air and sing in French!

How to pack and send rose cuttings through mail

Let me show you how you can share your roses with others.

The joy of having roses in the garden doesn't stop when the blooms age and petals fall on the ground. It is beyond these events. When blooms are spent and dead-heading begins, this is a good opportunity to save some cuttings for friends and neighbors.

Light pink ros kampung: Pergola or no pergola?

Q: Do you know the name of this rose? I bought this rose in Feb 2010 when it was less than 1 ft tall and now it is almost 4 ft tall. The stems are thin and soft and I have supported them with sticks. Since it grows so fast, should I make a pergola or arch to support it? Do you have suggestions as to grow this rose plant? Thanks.
