Dear readers,

I´d like to start today´s post with introducing my David Austin rose Jubilee Celebration and will then show you some other plants from my garden.

Jubilee Celebration was the first David Austin rose I bought. It is such a beautiful rose, producing many beautiful blooms in a salmon-pink with a delicious fruity fragrance. It is a very reliable rose, which I would not like to miss in my garden. Unless you give the rose some support, the large flowers will hang down a bit.


                                                                 
                                                                        Poppies
                                                                       

 

                                     

                                 

This is the first year I grow poppies, saw pictures of them in garden magazines and blogs and totally fell in love with them. So far they are doing fine and I think they look very beautiful in combination with roses.

                                                                       

                                                                   Peonies

If I were to choose two favorite plants, it would be roses and peonies. Peonies have the most outrageously beautiful blooms and for me they are extremely easy to maintain. Apart from cutting the withered flowers and  dead stems, they don´t seem to need me at all, no fertilizer or whatsoever.

I hope you liked today´s post and you might let me know what plants you grow in combination with roses,

Lisa
