Woke Up & Smelled the Roses





The wonderful smell of spring. My roses are all blooming. All 3 bushes have been cut back drastically and it seems that they are all bigger than ever. As good as that seems, all of the other plants that I've rescued from the clearance rack at Lowes last year are so much bigger also. My original intent was to share some of the plants with my nephew who is a new home owner and his dad who also purchased a home in 2009. Well needless to say I am searching for space in the ground in my small yard so that I can keep all of the plants. After careful planning and planting, I will not have to go to the store and spend a fortune on flowers. A couple annuals to add color to green areas is all that is needed.
