Roses And Roses

Roses in our backyard are flowering beautifully, the wet weather helps them to survive better.  This coming Easter we can have cut roses for the house, and the garden will have lovely colours.

Roses are very resilient plants, easy to care for; however, a proper pruning has to be done, fertilisers and insect spray have to be applied,  to achieve healthy plants and flowers.

The End Of March, The Roses In Our Backyard

My Appreciation of Roses.
I do so much with roses, I use them for cooking, garnishes and flower arrangements. The fresh petals are excellent to add into a water bowl, to wash hands. 

Dry the petals and use them for potpourri. I dried the rose petals, mix them with fragrant oil; however, it is not common practice, but I like it. The oil keeps the dried rose petals better and gives rooms a lovely smell.

Now it is late Autumn in Australia, enjoy the weekend by visiting gardens or parks, smell the roses and enjoy the beauty.

Everything changes.  Everyone loves what they once had.

But the ultimate question is,  "What do you do with what you have left?"
