Back after a week: most roses in full bloom
19 June 2006 by pat.
My gardens look lovely — except for all the cotton from the local cottonwood tree! Most of my roses are in full bloom now: Angel Face has only opened one blossom, though, and Hans Christian Andersen (in the back yard) has lots of buds but no blooms.
Meanwhile, in the front yard, Ingrid Bergman is showing large beautiful roses; Lily Marlene is starting to open up; one magnificent Chicago Peace bloom is finishing; the Flame patio rose has a few flowers and many buds. Also, the astilbe is starting to get its white blossoms, and the foxgloves are in full glory. Gawd, it’s a beautiful season. The deep red clematis in the front is also in bloom.In the back, Abraham Darby and Brother Caedfile (both David Austin roses) are in lovely bloom and smelling beautiful; Scentimental has a half-dozen open flowers, too. Just waiting on Hans Christian.The elderberry is threatening to take over: one young green branch was broken over, however, so I’ve pruned it. May have to do a bit more pruning. It seems very happy in the backyard, and its pale green leaves contrast nicely with the sand cherry.The buddleia and Saskatoon berry are doing well, too.Just gotta get out there and trim back the last of the daffodil leaves, and uproot the darned goutweed that’s still sprouting out of nowhere.That’s it from this hot small garden for today!

Having a good week
19 June 2006 by pat.
I was off in Santa Rosa, California this week for a leadership course. While I was away, my photography business continued to percolate! My husband was home, so when a phone call came in to display some of my photos in the Leslieville Cheese & Fine Foods shop that was opening on Saturday, he got right on it, and picked out seven pictures for the place.
I went in on Saturday and put up stickers with identifying info, email addy, and price. We’ll see what comes of it.And on Sunday, ETC (East Toronto Community) News was delivered to my door, with a full-page article and headshot about yours truly and her artwork (and gardening, and dayjob).So, sometimes it takes a while for things to happen. All of this got set in motion in February, when I was showing my pictures at Barrio. That’s where Lori saw them, and that’s when I initially contacted ETC news.Summary? Work six months in advance!Cheers!
