Much Ado About Roses
Today, I wanted to return to the whole rose rant, but first I am going to give you a summery of what I did yesterday. The first thing I was to rant about nonsense. We went out for a second time to look for the acrylic paint my painter friend needed. Eventually, I was able to narrow down what he truly wanted. He needed Winsor and Newton, but was too ashamed to ask for good paint. Anyhow, our search brought us to a Walmart that was more of a Publix. We got paranoid and left for home. On the way,...
Windy Flowers
I have been a little sad as of lately. Some of the flowers I have planted have started to die. The climbing vine in the patio looks terribly decrepit indeed. I wonder if I am watering it too much or too little. Some other small ones that are red and white also do not look too great. I think it has something to do with the sun and the wind. I have to pace myself with most things. I think I just over planted the main flower bed. Even if they croak, I am not going to add new flowers...
Cute Lil Red Flowers
I suppose it has been quite a bit since I have been ranting about flowers. It would make a lot more sense if I had gardening supplies. I am going to get around to it like real soon. There is just always so much to do. I am not in a particular doing kind of mood. The new painting looks real pretty around the edges. I am a bit mellowed out around the edges. I have nothing better to do as far as anything is concerned and whatnot. The hanging plant in the garden seems real weak. I do not...
My Two New Roses
The second rose finally opened. The middle one seems quite inspired indeed. When the first one opened it lost all its pigments. I googled about it. It is normal for this type of rose to turn white. It does so to maintain its power and luster. It is just saving energy to keep itself from wilting. I like the rose both in its white and its golden incarnation. All in all, this gardening project has been quite entertaining. I normally do a blog a day. Still, I took these photos recently. I decided I did not want to wait till...
My Inspiring Yellow Rose
Yellow Roses represent Joy and Friendship. I did not know this till five minutes ago when I googled it. I chose this rose bush because it looked inspired indeed. It has been quite a pig. I have been looking after it nonstop for the last couple of weeks. They say that when replanted, it needs extra water. It so happens to be one of those occasional really hot winters. The weather has been quite unstable in Florida. Some days, it is hot, others windy and cold. The plants in my garden are hardy indeed. The party was a little bit...
