Taming the roses that ran away, getting a fresh start


As you can see some of the climbing roses have run around the front yard and a few have run through the back yard as well.


The biggest concern was the ones that had gotten around the air conditioner. I got some help digging them out carefully so that none of the power lines and other mechanics would be damaged.


Some of the roses couldn't be saved but there were a few with good, strong root systems so we transplanted them to the trellis on the new planter box.


As always the walker comes in handy for a place to sit and rest as well as a way to move myself ad the things I need around the garden.


When I got all of the roses planted we spread a little wildflower seed around them.


As you may have noticed by now, I just can't leave bare soil alone and I want to cover the whole world with flowers to cheer everyone up and keep their minds off their troubles.

Yes, I realize how crazy that sounds but artist's aren't always sensible or ordinary and I like to think that the world is a better place because of that.

  1. Hey I know this is off topic but I was wondering if
    you knew of any widgets I could add to my blog that automatically tweet my newest twitter updates.
    I've been looking for a plug-in like this for quite some time and was hoping maybe you would have some experience with something like this. Please let me know if you run into anything. I truly enjoy reading your blog and I look forward to your new updates.

  2. Can I simply just say what a comfort to find an individual who actually
    knows what they're discussing on the web. You definitely understand how to bring a problem to light and make it important. A lot more people have to read this and understand this side of your story. I can't
    believe you aren't more popular since you definitely have the gift.
