I stopped by the nursery to pick up a hanging basket and came home with more...
I want so badly to grow a few roses but I'll be darned if I'm going to do the "Minnesota Tip" every fall. (That's where you dig a trench and tip the bush down into it and cover it with earth...way too much work!)
Let me introduce you to the 'new' roses! This is Ole developed by the University of Minnesota to withstand our harsh winters without being buried in the ground. There is also a Sven and Lena (sounds like MinnesOtans).
Then there is this beauty called All The Rage and smells divine, I don't know where this rose came from but it is guaranteed to be hardy.I decided to dig up a small area in the back and try out these two, see what happens this winter and IF they make it...I'll add Sven and Lena, by then they'll probably have added another Swede.
And my fuchsia hanging basket, what I originally went in the nursery for...such a soft pretty pink, I couldn't resist it!Thanks for stopping!
