A gardener's delight

I have had beautiful roses in my garden but I get greater joy when I see new shoots with buds showing up. Normally roses remain dormant and without notice they spring happy surprises as you see in this image. I will see more of this slowly. This picture is an old one. This is the time my garden gets a make over. How is your garden doing?

As soon as I deadhead my roses, new buds start appearing. I only have four rose bushes but I enjoy seeing the blooms.

My garden was badly affected by a recent flood we had here. Many of our plants withered. Yesterday morning we saw a yellow rose coming out of the rose bush. I felt happy in seeing it

@allknowing yes this yellow rose looked lovely. We do want a variety of colours of roses in the garden. Maybe next week we will be doing a bit of gardening to build the garden again

Yellow is a pretty colour. I had a yellow rose but it just yielded once - a perfect yellow. There is another plant and I am hoping it will yield.

I do not touch my husband's garden because I am a plant killer. Nothing ever grows for me.

I knew it! It is a rose. I really like roses and wanted to have a mini garden.

What is stopping you from having a garden?

As a gardener it will bring joy to us on watching the buds. At present I don't have a garden.

Slowly but surely. All of our roses have new shoots and green leaves so looking forward to when they will burst into bloom. Our lilacs are blooming and it looks lovely all around.

That is the joy gardeners get - it is a perpetual hope.
