Happy Sunday from my Rose Garden

Patty's rose garden, Happy Sunday blog check in. www.PattyStamps.com

Happy Sunday!!  It’s been way too long since I shared photos from my rose garden here on my blog!  I hope you enjoy some pretties and that it brings you a spot of joy today!

I do share lots of my garden and rose photos on social media, but I realize not everyone follows me outside of my blog, so that’s why I decided to share a little today!  The bouquet above was in my craft room (well, you can probably tell that).  You’ll see a bouquet in the background of some of my crafting videos… I try to keep a bouquet from my rose garden in my craft room all the time.  The colors and beauty inspire me and make me smile.

I know I inherited my love of gardening and roses from my mom… I just wish I could have appreciated her efforts more as a teenager at home.  The Whiskey Mac rose was her favorite in her garden.  After she passed away in 2006, we tried taking cuttings from her Whiskey Mac but I could never get them to root.   In 2016, Eric found a cutting from a Whiskey Mac on ebay (of all places!) – it was only 12″ tall – and we planted it, and it’s taken several moves around the garden (it’s in a huge pot) but as you can see above, it’s now VERY happy!!

In my garden, I have 6 rose bushes and 7 Alstromeria.  As you can see from the bouquet above, I love a variety of colors in my garden and in my bouquets.

And lastly, just cuz I wanted to document this… we were so happy when a few of the restaurants finally opened around here (at 25% capacity) a couple weeks ago… this was our first meal out INSIDE a restaurant since March.  Tacos de Costra for me and a Quesabirria for Eric, from Que Onda in Pinole.  SUCH GOOD food and a great variety too!

Thanks for hanging out with me today.  Hope you enjoyed the photos from my rose garden.  Do you have a garden?  What do you grow?

  2. Your garden looks lovely. I also love my flower garden and have a love of gardening. Here in New York, I now will have to wait until spring to tend to my garden….(insert sad face). Enjoy your beautiful flowers.

  3. Hi Patty, Thank you for sharing your garden. It is beautiful. I have a garden but since I live in deep south Texas in the Rio Grande Valley I have more drought tolerant plants like Desert Rose, Crown of Thorns, and several cactus and succulent varieties.

  4. You’re flowers are always so beautiful and you arrange them so nicely! The colors and variety in each bouquet make me happy too! Also make me a bit jealous as we have a couple inches of snow here this morning (SD). Thanks for sharing!

  5. Hi Patty,
    Your flower garden is beautiful! I too lost my mom in 2006 and she was always fond of yellow roses. I have just recently tried my hand at growing roses. Do you have any particular hints for them to grow?

  6. Absolutely gorgeous garden. You have it hands down being able to grow roses; this must not be my plant – your alstromeria are so pretty. Love love love the colors. We buy them at the grocery store and marvel what we can get. Love that they stay for a long period of time. I am into perennials. Live in the Dallas area so have to have plants that tolerate hot weather and then our fickle winters. During the pandemic(when everything was completed closed down) I worked everyday in the backyard. It was great therapy. Right now I have about 7 hanging baskets throughout the flower beds with pansies, kale, labellia, and alyssum. Into ornamental grasses, just planted 4 more. Thanks for sharing your gorgeous bouquets.

  7. Lovely to see your beautiful garden! The roses are beautiful! :<) I remember talking with you about a love of English gardens and yours is so wonderful! It is 38 degrees here in WI and snow showers today, tonight and tomorrow. Want me to send you some? :<)

  8. Patty, thanks for sharing your garden, it looks lovely, inviting and healthy. Green leaves, wow! My poor roses, the bushes used to look healthy, too many roots from the trees?
    You shared roses and alstroemerias, my colors and favorites.
    God bless you and our Country.

  13. Ah! Your garden is beautiful and it is a delight to see your flowers! I understand going to a restaurant now! Keep safe! Our town is in the red because of a huge spike in Covid cases so once again I am staying close to home! Enjoy your outing!

  14. Patty,
    Thank you so much for sharing your roses. I miss mine. I am 76 now and with my elderly years problems come, so no more gardening.
    I could almost smell your wonderful flowers. Thank you for YOU!

  15. Patty,
    Thank you so much for sharing your beautiful roses and flower garden with us again! I love flowers and always enjoy seeing your gorgeous garden and bouquets. It is cold and rainy right now where I live in Oklahoma. Today is our first freezing drizzle of the season, so I went out last night and picked the last of our tomatoes from the garden, plus a colorful bouquet of zinnias and cosmos, mostly pinks and purples left. We have some mums and marigolds blooming, also. My herb garden is glorious with the bright red blooms of pineapple sage, but I had to cover my basil with blankets until I can harvest it. It can not take any freezing temps. I’m a little behind on that, LOL! God Bless, Tina

  17. OMG – THANK YOU SO MUCH for sharing your lovely flowers with all of us. It is a breath of fresh air here in Colorado this week between the fires & the snow & frigid temperatures. Wish my thumb was a green as yours!!! In a gardening kinda way. . . .

  18. Your roses are beautiful. Mine are suffering some right now from lack of TLC. My husband tended to them until yard work got too much for him.
