Friday Flowers. Winter Rose Bouquet
Winter in the garden means lots of pruning around here, of which my roses especially get a good hard prune. But with our temperatures really mild in the 40s, 50s and 60s our roses haven’t slowed down and have plenty of new growth, buds and flowers still abloom.

Friday Flowers. Dahlia Bouquet & the Story of the Dahlia
Hello and a good Friday to you! How was your week? Are you looking forward to the weekend? We sure are. It’ s going to be a low key weekend for us, but that’s just fine. Gosh we are so getting used to lazing around not doing much, but that’s going to change in a couple of weeks when the twins colleges open. They are remote learning this semester, we didn’t feel comfortable sending them off to college with so much uncertainly looming ahead. I get to have my twins at home just a little while longer 😊 💕.
