I'm just waiting on the roses.


Just about everything has bloomed that's going to bloom in my garden for spring.


I'm just waiting on the roses now.
They usually appear right on cue in the first week of November.


Graham Thomas is usually the first, and Compassion. Cecile Brunner isn't far off either. The banksia rose climbing the veranda post is already out.







The snowball bush came from a sucker off another one I have in the front garden.






Fancy a spell on the veranda with a good book? I can recommend The Elegance of the Hedgehog.

Foxgloves, granny bonnets and a banksia rose.
