Late autumn roses


These are just a few of the roses that are still blooming
in our southern hemisphere autumn garden!
The photos were taken since we moved in less than 2 months ago.

Today, I decided to get out and count the roses.

I counted 409!!

It will be so delightful to see them bloom next spring/summer/autumn!

Gorgeous roses Betty - mine have all but stopped flowering now - just one or two stragglers. Did you know they love banana skins and onion papers scattered around them? I have had some wonderful displays since starting to feed them with these as 'extras'.
Stay safe
Blessings

Wow! What a beautiful collection of many types of roses. It's nice that someone else's creativity will continue to be enjoyed for many years to come. Enjoy!

So many roses! Your garden will be an absolute riot of colour and scent - something to look forward to during the dull winter days :)

Spring is here, and summer coming soon, but oh, I sort of envy you autumn. It is my favorite season.

Wunderschöne Rosen hast du mit deiner Kamera
aufgenommen, ein herrlicher Anblick. Die Vielfältigkeit
in ihren Farben ist groß und ich freue mich über jede
Blüte die ich entdecke.
Wünsche dir einen sonnigen Tag und sende dir liebe
Grüße, Karin Lissi

409 means a lovely extended time in the garden. Wonderful. I wish I could smell their fragrance from here.

Delightful flowers! I assume that you are not confined in place as NZ seemed to have done very well in containing the spread of the virus. If they don't create a vaccine most of us will finally catch it until herd immunity sets in, on the assumption that the disease confers long-term immunity.
