The last few months have been so busy. I really have let my blog kind of disappear. I sort of lost interest in gardening. Actually I think I am loosing interest in roses. <br />
On the bright side, I am married now yay!!!!!!! Mark and I finally did it. It was a small wedding of mostly family. Then we went to Kauai for honeymoon. That was really the best time of life. I was bit with gardening bug again but in a much heavy tropical way. Every where you look the gingers were blooming and I just fell for them... I actually have been thinking of looking into some floral schools for the future. All the arrangements for the wedding were beautiful and my bouquet was my favorite part. Amaryllis and calla Lilly's.. <br />

I do not understand why but some things that I was so interested in I will now leave behind. As much as I have loved growing roses, the time has come to down size the garden and make things a little easier. I am thinking of taking out my really old rose bushes that just do not seem to preform well any how, and make a few succulant beds. I will always grow roses but not to the extent that I was.<br />
Now its time to start thinking about how I am going to approach this revamp of my landscape.steph_gemhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01130590122703328974noreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1638558502946862295.post-17730686072711798272011-08-17T19:59:00.000-07:002011-09-02T07:22:59.330-07:00garden blah<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgg_uY0G9iOtSbCSzCsf4Oc7qSMTDTevzlKNmo6uuGxnZglMtYVQJLZBMlKcbPMgDogEcDhvL-ZJQML6itOIrdmBJaP5fesaQc-esQu7WowVMmrocMlThE0XzuHfhJU7860fANcYYsRSac/s1600/DSC00092.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="240" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgg_uY0G9iOtSbCSzCsf4Oc7qSMTDTevzlKNmo6uuGxnZglMtYVQJLZBMlKcbPMgDogEcDhvL-ZJQML6itOIrdmBJaP5fesaQc-esQu7WowVMmrocMlThE0XzuHfhJU7860fANcYYsRSac/s320/DSC00092.JPG" width="320" /></a></div>I just have not felt like gardening lately...

Our beloved Higgy Bear past away. I never thought anything could be so hard. Higgy was everything to us. He was my traveling buddy, gardening buddy, cuddle buddy. He really was a special guy, so unbelievably smart, he could make any one do what he wanted them too. The most beautiful brown eyes, more beautiful than any rose.

Everything from the smell, which is so strong yummy, to the glowing yellow and gold cupped blooms. The thing with Austins in southern California is that some keep growing and growing and growing. If you have been to southern California you know that most yards are on the smaller side. I had to give both of my beautiful Pat Austins away because they ran out room. This was last year blooming in front of the heavenly bamboo...steph_gemhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01130590122703328974noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1638558502946862295.post-37327760372090679632011-07-20T05:45:00.000-07:002011-07-20T05:46:11.797-07:00Suntruck hybrid tea rose<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiH74Ed8e19hz9x48x9FgfC0X-jgjj2yUWjBALnAjF9GujlZlzxCMDzbbHCQKBKmJTyPHv-Imw-N_Inn_F4LF5veTHIf5sOTxJ4a1F1YIxBnxpv3I5c-Atvojti2WdXbZtKuf6XlsL5Ufk/s1600/Picture+045.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="240" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiH74Ed8e19hz9x48x9FgfC0X-jgjj2yUWjBALnAjF9GujlZlzxCMDzbbHCQKBKmJTyPHv-Imw-N_Inn_F4LF5veTHIf5sOTxJ4a1F1YIxBnxpv3I5c-Atvojti2WdXbZtKuf6XlsL5Ufk/s320/Picture+045.jpg" width="320" /></a></div><br />

The gorgeous yellow gold blooms glow in the sun. If you are an exhibitor, this is a rose you may want to add to your garden. There is what is called a peakocking through the petals. It almost looks like there are coral gold veins spiraling through the petal, and did I mention you get quite a few perfectly formed blooms. It is a very tall rose for me, so plant behind your medium roses or towards the back of your garden. There is only one fault to this gorgeous rose and that would be the absence of scent.steph_gemhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01130590122703328974noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1638558502946862295.post-24898707055823865772011-07-17T21:08:00.000-07:002011-07-17T21:08:34.477-07:00I am engaged!!!So I know I have not posted anything for a over a week. Last week was my birthday. On Friday night Mark took me to eat at Island Prime. The location of this restaurant is so cool. It is on stilts right on the ocean. I have pictures on my face book page. After an amazing meal he mentioned that we should go watch the sunset. We went to a place that you could see the whole sky line of San Diego, and there he asked me to marry him. I have been all crazy and happy since that day, and totally neglecting my blog.

When I find a miniature single rose I usually have no control and have to have it. Hoot owl is a small miniature single rose with a crisp white eye. What could be more cheerful? <br />

The coloring is almost like a <span id="SPELLING_ERROR_0" class="blsp-spelling-corrected">caramel</span> toffee. I personally am really attracted to odd color flowers. I love the muted colors that some people might think ugly. This rose seems to have lost some of its vigor. It really pouted after I moved it from the original spot it was in.<br />My garden is becoming more difficult to grow things in the back yard because my <span id="SPELLING_ERROR_1" class="blsp-spelling-corrected">neighbors</span> have a 70 foot tall tree in a small urban yard. I can not even explain how angry this tree makes me. I must of pulled up over a 100 seedlings this year and every year its seems like there are more.

This miniature for me has a strange growth habit. its very compact in that it does not give me many long cutting stems. A lot of the blooms come on short stems. it does not like to be pruned hard and will produce die back if so.</div>steph_gemhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01130590122703328974noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1638558502946862295.post-13682864788463148742011-06-05T07:16:00.000-07:002011-06-05T07:24:41.301-07:00Fun Time with old friends<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEizXaSCbRblgmkVJIbzJ_1mM0kPkcYBLGMh7ycmtfljKWEPIJv5B_8qI18e-zWaMtkw2zlg4dKvxm6Gwh8f1_Na6VZUpkqJ6p5zZYAYPW2RkzwxJgJj9YjnztlSSX2veQemSOD5vlqf7_c/s1600/DSC00243.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 240px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5614741199700881682" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEizXaSCbRblgmkVJIbzJ_1mM0kPkcYBLGMh7ycmtfljKWEPIJv5B_8qI18e-zWaMtkw2zlg4dKvxm6Gwh8f1_Na6VZUpkqJ6p5zZYAYPW2RkzwxJgJj9YjnztlSSX2veQemSOD5vlqf7_c/s320/DSC00243.JPG" /></a><br /><br /><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgp60Xw7FNlnuN7W-NmsmSQrFeH1OnuP-rRN_dio7UgxqNhC3lB7MMkqvixh2eRdvDFB3075zILOlv19ehC3-HH7JFM8x1rPYXV5PKiMQnAzZBfGAiGYSeacX2ZA7beGGj9R_0E0_XOx3o/s1600/DSC00244.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 240px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5614740922773726514" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgp60Xw7FNlnuN7W-NmsmSQrFeH1OnuP-rRN_dio7UgxqNhC3lB7MMkqvixh2eRdvDFB3075zILOlv19ehC3-HH7JFM8x1rPYXV5PKiMQnAzZBfGAiGYSeacX2ZA7beGGj9R_0E0_XOx3o/s320/DSC00244.JPG" /></a><br /><br /><br /><br /><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjGOB3NbaKRIUbe08lnWPa-nm8owYo_OfNtT2tr_QYj319c9AoO1BHhY2gtpK0bz8YK0o9aUBi4H-73LkBWFpH4Aqvq_Ls-8Xc1RrvlPTRm7N6S-o5jf06YEH3cl8JRnqvE0LiPVV-lUJE/s1600/DSC00242.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 240px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5614740635618393122" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjGOB3NbaKRIUbe08lnWPa-nm8owYo_OfNtT2tr_QYj319c9AoO1BHhY2gtpK0bz8YK0o9aUBi4H-73LkBWFpH4Aqvq_Ls-8Xc1RrvlPTRm7N6S-o5jf06YEH3cl8JRnqvE0LiPVV-lUJE/s320/DSC00242.JPG" /></a><br /><br /><br />Mel and Myself on the left side playing with puffy paints!!!<br /><br /><br /><div>Yesterday Just peachy Keen's Mel ( <a href="http://www.sweetjkp.blogspot.com/">http://www.sweetjkp.blogspot.com/</a>) and I went to and old friends baby shower.
