Oh Happy Happy Day.

Isn't gardening wonderful.

Yesterday a sad day, last of the toms.

Today a double happy day. The last rose of summer in full bloom. And I am now sure of PSB for the upcoming festive season.

Happy day indeed.

The PSB looks good Potty, and is that a Golden Shower rose? I too have one last bud on mine that is just starting to unfurl.

Your PSB looks very tasty, Potty No roses in this garden (I've annihilated them) but there are plenty of rambling ones still covered in flowers in the other garden.

Thanks MH. I think it is but to be sure I would have to ask SWMBO when she returns. After all she is in charge of the flowers.

Beautiful rose, Colin. Would you please send the flower fairy my way; so that my newly planted roses work.

Ps. One of my classroom cactii is called Colin. Only he has two Ells and some pretty floo'ers.

SWMBO confirms you are correct MH well spotted.

It's a textbook publisher! Though when I said that my cactii were pretty Ugly, students looked a bit perplexed. The cactii in question are the Kismet variety.
