It is a very good idea to bend the canes in a more horizontal way along the fence and I am sure I would get much more blooms. The only problem with this is, that I am probably too lazy to do that. But who knows I may change my mind for the HPs in case they decide to only bloom at the tip of the canes. We will see next year!<br /><br />Christinaorganicgardendreamshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11122516730008378516noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5286710136867815403.post-50805465147276082742011-09-30T08:08:14.554-07:002011-09-30T08:08:14.554-07:00Those roses look really impressive now!

You know, you could start bending those long canes along the fence, as you would with a climber, and hopefully get even more blooms :). I can't wait to see pictures of it next spring!Mashahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15996950576326655813noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5286710136867815403.post-42158590346745371662011-09-29T08:33:29.858-07:002011-09-29T08:33:29.858-07:00Casa Mariposa, nice to see you visiting my blog, a...Casa Mariposa, nice to see you visiting my blog, again! I am glad that you like my new rose bed :-)! Yes, I have thought about breaking the concrete border, but unfortunately it goes at least one foot down into the ground and becomes even wider the further it goes down. I guess, someone had the need to use a lot of concrete :-(. Since removing it will be a major undertaking for now it has to stay.<br /><br />Christinaorganicgardendreamshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11122516730008378516noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5286710136867815403.post-52194901711819751882011-09-28T15:58:39.485-07:002011-09-28T15:58:39.485-07:00The bed looks great!!

I really love the first rose you showed. I love full roses with lots of petals.

Yes, I also feel like I am a lucky girl to be able to grow these roses in my little yard :-). I am so happy if my blog post inspired you to work in your garden. I often feel the same after I have read your blog!<br /><br />redneckrosarian, nice to see you commenting on my blog again! Thanks for you compliment. I also think that the roses have grown tremendously in a relatively short period of time. I am looking already forward to the spring flush next year. <br /><br />Holley, I am happy that you like my color scheme. I think, that I am not very good in combining colors so each time it works I feel like I have lucked out. The soil didn't look so bad to you because I had removed all the stones out of the holes that I could before I took the photos, but trust me it is really bad ;-). <br /><br />Christinaorganicgardendreamshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11122516730008378516noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5286710136867815403.post-71293130012897599542011-09-26T10:30:54.383-07:002011-09-26T10:30:54.383-07:00Love your color scheme!

Can't wait to see this bed next summer - it will be so filled out, and when the roses are blooming it will be gorgeous. Your soil did not look so bad to me, then you mentioned having to dig it with a jackhammer and not draining!HolleyGardenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14892421871044249940noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5286710136867815403.post-35227038646000413462011-09-26T05:08:54.730-07:002011-09-26T05:08:54.730-07:00What a great idea!

What a difference. I love all three of those roses and you are blessed to have them in your gardens. Once again I am inspired to keep on working in my own gardens. A little bit different climate miles away, but with the same love of growing these beautiful flowers.<br /><br />FlowerLadyFlowerLady Lorrainehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17678852154334714784noreply@blogger.com
