Everythings coming up Roses

Things are blooming and growing everywhere! It is wonderful to be able to cultivate and design with living things such as these roses.

Winter is gone

But some of the cool weather is still hanging on and boy am I thankful for that. After moving from Ireland to America again I notice that I prefer Irish weather. The days may be a little warm but never reach the temps. that I have encountered here in the states. In Ireland we did not have an air condishiners in our homes just the opening of a window let in all the cool air you would need. Even through the summer months we would sometime be in need of a small fire in the hearth. But needless to say where I miss Ireland and England the most is when I work in my garden. Here are some shots of my up and coming garden for this summer.
