I absolutely adore roses! Do you love them?
I do like roses, they're one of the prettiest flowers!
I have an extensive bunch of garden roses growing in my front yard. They smell amazing!
My mother used to have a huge garden when I was younger, and she had white roses out front!
Gorgeous! Did she ever enter them in a rose show?
No, my mother is more of the introverted type, but we did get plenty of compliments from the neighbors! lol
A ha! I bet your neighbors were happy to have such a beautiful edition to your neighborhood.
I think so, it might have inspired some of them, because more gardens started popping up! haha
Allotment (gardening)
An allotment garden (British English), often called simply an allotment, or a community garden (North America), is a plot of land made available for individual, non-commercial gardening or growing food plants. Such plots are formed by subdividing a piece of land into a few or up to several hundred land parcels that are assigned to individuals or families. Such parcels are cultivated individually, contrary to other community garden types where the entire area is tended collectively by a group of people.
very cramped. In the yard my mother, my father, and I each had a garden. My mother's taste inclined to roses and spring flowers, and I had ordinary things like Zinnias and bluets, but the glory of our yard was my father's dahlias. They bloomed in wonderful, brilliant colors, and the blossoms were as large as dinner plates. I remember the care with which he sorted the bulbs and stored them in the basement over the winter"""."
