Hope you get into your garden soon -- it's a lovely spot.<br />Cybill: That's the difficult tug with gardens, isn't it? At the table, planning, or in the dirt, digging . . .<br />Tiffany: It has its drawbacks, to which my muffintop can attest, but I'm pretty lucky in having a resident chef! I do hope you manage some garden time soon.<br />Hostess: 410! That's a challenge! I presume you'll know some of these from previous years?<br />What I find tough is learning 90-120 names in September, using them over 13 weeks, only to begin again in January with a completely different set of the same numbers. Very little carryover at all.<br /><br />This rose, by the way, is Awakening -- New Dawn is the parent. And it's very easy to cultivate -- the difficulty is simply in finding it. Worth the effort, absolutely.materfamiliashttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16062766947897513369noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4904021173466473381.post-82885448535661653832010-09-11T08:08:50.282-07:002010-09-11T08:08:50.282-07:00I love your Himalayan honeysuckle...I have 2 as we...I love your Himalayan honeysuckle...I have 2 as well and the New Dawn rose is beautiful...that specimen looks very hardy despite your comment about the difficulty of cultivation.<br /><br />Hope that you have a restful weekend.<br /><br />I plan to do a lot of R&R<br />I'll need to memorize and recognize 410 students!<br /><br />Glad to hear pater is having fun in the kitchen.hostess of the humble bungalowhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06453827257671312902noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4904021173466473381.post-23511217125524295052010-09-10T22:55:35.728-07:002010-09-10T22:55:35.728-07:00How I envy you a husband who can cook.

I was hoping to breathe a sigh of relief on Friday night after a ridiculously hectic week, then I looked at what the weekend held and realised it wasn't over ... I'm hoping I can find a day during the work week next week to bunk off to my garden for a few hours and finally regroup!Tiffanyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11536212906241844509noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4904021173466473381.post-90686872668041035212010-09-10T19:58:10.898-07:002010-09-10T19:58:10.898-07:00Gardening is my way of re-charging the batteries, ...Gardening is my way of re-charging the batteries, though if I spent less time planning and more time doing, I would be better off.<br />Glad to hear the transition into being a half retired couple is going well!Cybillhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15633359151812576054noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4904021173466473381.post-62943786643110127942010-09-10T19:23:46.340-07:002010-09-10T19:23:46.340-07:00I'm also glad your new domestic arrangement se...I'm also glad your new domestic arrangement seems to be working out so well.<br /><br />That rose is fabulous!!!
