Flowers of 7th and 8th of June
Na een maand van zomers weer moeten we weer even wennen aan
het koele weer. Ik ben blij dat ik niet de eigenaar van een rozenkwekerij
ben. Ik besef mij nu pas eens hoe afhankelijk zo'n kwekerij is van
het weer. We willen geen rozen meer die bespoten zijn met chemicaliën
maar ook geen planten die aangegeten worden door de insecten.
Gelukkig zijn in mijn tuintje de insecten welkom, het hoort nu
eenmaal bij de natuur.
After a month of summerweather it cooled down to 17C. I am happy
that I am not the owner of a rosenursery. I realize how dependent
they are of the weather. We customers don't want roses that are
sprayed with chemicals but also don't want a rose that's eaten by
insects. In my little garden the insects are welcome.

I have a small garden and this rose Brown Velvet is not an easy one. I doubted many
times to get it out of my garden and plant another one that will do great. But when
the spare flowers that it bring arrive I accept the way is growing. The color is
very special.

Marijke, your rose garden looks sublime! the roses are splendid, all the varieties! I spray my roses, I have no option : if I don't spray I can't have roses, insects here in the subtropic are a big problem: beetles, ants, locusts all them feed on roses not to mention diseases and fungi, spraying here is a must. Have a wonderful day full of Roses!
BeantwoordenVerwijderenHello MDN,
VerwijderenIt´s not nice to have to watch your rose getting destroyed by insects. I can understand
why you have to spray. I recognize now how the dry weather get´s the roses in good shape.
No fungi at the moment. In other years my roses were compleet without any leave before
they even got the chance to go into the 2nd flush. Have a wonderful day

Hello Marijke
BeantwoordenVerwijderenGreat roses - Brown Velvet have a very interesting colour!
The fantastic "Purple Splash" is called "Oh Wow" here.
Have a great day
hello Karsten,
VerwijderenBrown Velvet has a rusty brown color that´s hard te catch with the camera. In my garden
it´s a very weak one. But the few flowers it´s bringing are breathtaking.
I love roses like Purple Splash. This kind of roses do amaze me that not one flower is
identical . I love it. This rose brings long canes in the 3rd year.
Have a wonderful evening.
Rosehugs Marijke

Good morning Casa Madeira,
VerwijderenThe best way to learn about growing roses is to learn about the mistakes I've made.
Thank you for your nice comment

Sebastian Kneipp, he is white, and ivory, and peach, cream, and pale yellow, and always beautiful! 'Brown Velvet' looks very good, even if it is difficult.
BeantwoordenVerwijderenYour photos are excellent, too.
Good morning Hoover Boo,
VerwijderenSebastian Kneipp is a gorgeous rose. At the top of the cane it makes a wonderful
bouquet of flowers. Brown Velvet is a very weak one. But I read on the internet that it
will do much better in warmer climats. This rose is also know under the name Colorbreak.
Have a wonderful day.
Rosehugs Marijke
Dear Marijke,
BeantwoordenVerwijderenI see that despite on cool weather your roses are pretty and feel well. We in turn have had cool weather but this week we have +23-25 C and the plants grow and bloom well.
Your photo of Penny Lane is my favorite. Is it climbing one?
Hugs!
Good morning Nadezda,
VerwijderenThe cooler weather makes that the flowers stay longer. Penny Lane is a climbing one.
Healthy, and even when it's raining the flowers stay well.
Have a wonderful day
Rosehugs marijke
