It is hard to produce an almost blemish free rose here in Austin in our hot and humid, bug ridden climate, when you grow your roses organically and don’t spray. But the rose variety ‘Belinda’s Dream’ is getting the job done from time to time. Mine was growing way too long in a container that was maybe two gallons small until relatively recently when I bought her a half whiskey barrel and planted her in good potting into it. This is her first bloom she produced in her new home and it looked fabulous. I have high hopes that the flowers will get bigger and more full once the rose has established herself. I am also experimenting with her sister ‘Belinda’s Blush’, but this rose I will plant into the ground. Hope your weekend is off to a good start! I have an emotional strenuous week behind me and I am looking so much forward to some relaxation. Tonight we will have friends over. We plan to pop a bottle of Champagne to celebrate something personal and throw some fish on the grill and serve it together with oven roasted potatoes, beans, and broccolini. We only need to figure out a fitting desert. For later my husband has prepared a slide show with photos from our Germany trip that we will all watch together. It should be fun! I still can’t fully believe that it is possible to get together with friends again in terms of Covid. The vaccines have been such a blessing and I am eternally grateful that we can return to somewhat of a normal life. What are your plans for the weekend? #rose #roses #organicgardendreams #pink #pinkrose #pinkroses #belindasdream #belindasdreamrose #inmygarden #perfectrose #fortheloveofroses #rosesoninstagram #instarose #instaroses #instagramroses #instagramrose #frommygarden #growninmygarden #roselover #roseconnoisseur #fortheloveofroses #austin #austingardener #austintexas #centraltexasgardening #atx #flowerphotography #mygarden #organic #organicgardening (at Austin, Texas) https://www.instagram.com/p/CQTObkfHQoT/?utm_medium=tumblr
