Before the rain arrived, I hobbled around the garden a bit to enjoy it as much as I could, before the rain ruined all the many roses in bloom. The ruination is okay. I can be miserable about it, or I can be grateful for the rain, and happy. I choose gratitude. Gratitude for the many blooms on 'Golden Celebration':
Gratitude for the single bloom on 'Old Port':
And for another solitary flower on 'Veteran's Honor':
And grateful that despite all my efforts, I havenot killed not yet killed my latest copy of Aloe polyphylla. It was rootless and appeared to be near death, so a few months ago I stuck it on the back slope. The other day I gave it a light tug, then a bit of a harder pull, and it appears to have re-rooted, at least enough to hold onto the slope. Dare I be optimistic?
Many other things to be grateful for, not just the rain.

ReplyDeleteYour five photos made me happy. Love the way your puppies pose for a photo. They look so angelic.
