These are lovely, but have very little scent.

I remember getting a rosebush from my husband one day and although my entire garden was in full bloom the rose bush had died. It seems you have to have a special knack to care for these beautiful flowers Ellenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02617686222764658629noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8158245992923239671.post-39869975945923674122017-10-23T09:55:28.917+02:002017-10-23T09:55:28.917+02:00Interesting, maybe the lights could be the 'so...Interesting, maybe the lights could be the 'souls' of the flowers... <br /><br />I remember when I first looked at this card, thinking about all the people involved in gardening: the person who sells the seeds, who makes the tools, who delivers the compost. And also the teamwork of sun and earth and rain and dedicated gardener: dead-heading old blooms, squirting dilute washing-up liquid on the aphids... :D<br />As you say, it's a lot of work, and we need faith that it will be worth the effort. Yet, this is also why you plant lots of seeds. Some may fail, but those that bloom make up for the rest ;)Inner Whispershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04577110987784585986noreply@blogger.com
