Early summer is when my roses love me back the most. Like the petit reynard in Le Petit Prince, I wait and anticipate the arrival of buds. Then I know the rose buds are just around the corner. By May the buds are opening to release a fragrance that wafts through the warm air. The backside of the fence and the climber is a rugosa. Its been perfect weather conditions for her this year. Several under plantings of clematis have also proved to be good neighbors . Plus as they grow up thru the rose stems, they offer color when roses are rejuvenating themselves. Japanese Irises compliment her color and get along well as neighbors.Below, Peonies are a great pairing in bouquets. Plus, who doesn't love their scent. Everyone should place banana peels in their soil around the base of the rose plant. The sent is wonderful!

The string gardens are a type of bonsai gardening known as Kokedama (meaning “moss-covered ball”). Orchids, succulents, and carnivorous plants would be obvious candidates for String Gardens, as they will tolerate an air-borne existence better than other plants. Above: Venus Fly Trap.

Snön yr runt husknuten och man kan lugnt sitta inne och mysa vid brasan samtidigt som man läser frölistor. Det är kanske många av er som är medlem i STA och har tillgång till årets frölista som innehåller 2415 olika sorter. Har du bestämt dig ännu för vilka frön du ska beställa i år eller funderar du fortfarande? Såg att Axfingerborgsblomman - Digitalis parviflora 'Chocolate' fanns med som nr. 803. Köpte frön -09 och frösådde i lätt fuktad såjord i början på mars. Fröna är ljusgroende så täck inte med jord, lägger endast ett tunt lager med vermikulit. Lägger plastfilm med lufthål över krukan så att jordytan hålls fuktig och inte torkar ut fort. Vänd plastfilmen vid kondens så att jordytan inte möglar. Sådden ställs direkt under växtbelysning och i rumstemperatur på ca. +20º. Fröna gror på ca. 7-10 dagar. Skolar om med 1 planta/kruka då de första karaktärsbladen har vuxit ut ca. 1 månad efter det har grott. Plantorna bör ställas svalt ca. +15º- +18º och fortfarande under växtbelysning eller ut i växthus. I mitten av maj har plantorna vuxit och bladen har fått sin silvriga kant. Då risk för frost är över kan man plantera ner plantorna i rabatten. Plantera gärna några tillsammans i en grupp. Första åren bildas endast bladrosetten som är vintergrön. En del av bladen vissnar, blir bruna och fula under vintern men dom får man klippa bort då man rensar rabatten under våren. Blommar andra året i juli/augusti med en chokladbrun spira. Blir totalt ca. 50-60cm. hög. Trivs i sol/halvskugga i väldränerad jord. Enligt uppgift är den bienn, dvs. dör efter det att den har blommat men plantorna blommar och lever fortfarande. Vill man inte ha självsådder kan man klippa av hela fröstängeln. Har man inte tillgång till växtbelysning och svala utrymmen är det absolut enklast att fröså och ställa ut hela krukan. Skotta snö över ifall det finns. Glöm ej att passa mot torka då solen börja skina. Fröna börjar gro tidigt ute under våren. En växt jag gillar och rekommenderar varmt. Ha en trevlig lördag kväll!
