Everything’s Coming Up Roses

This one is shaped like a heart.

 

I was so thrilled to see my rose bushes in bountiful bloom this year. Then I noticed that the roses all around town were looking spectacular. Everything’s coming up roses, I thought. Whatever bad weather we’ve had this past winter and spring, it sure seems the roses didn’t mind. When I first bought my knockout roses, I had trouble with pests and I struggled to find a solution. I almost gave up on them, but now I am so glad I didn’t. Rose bushes remind me of my grandmother – she had the most beautiful mound of them near a massive rock in her yard. She took such pride in her roses. It’s a nice memory that I now relive every time I look at my roses.

I hope that everything keeps coming up roses this summer. For now, I’ll stop and smell mine as much as possible.

Stunning Roses! But what about the hydrangeas? Will we see vibrant colors this year? Last year the bad weather impacted everyones. Fingers crossed.
