Even though it's still winter, and cold, I can sense that spring is on its way. Winter used to be my most hated season, but I'm liking it more that I used to, now, for health reasons. I'm enjoying the way winter keeps me from overheating!
I'm glad that spring is on the way though, the birds are chirping more, and they all seem more chipper with it! I love those chipper chirpers! And I know the bulbs are getting ready to show off what they've been working on underground. We have freesias and dutch iris, and I hope we get a big display when the time is right.
We didn't prune our rose bushes over winter, and I wish we had. One of the roses has a lovely rich purple/red bloom on it now, and I guess it would be a shame to prune it all away. Our family are certainly not knowledgeable rose gardeners. I just know roses are meant to be pruned in winter, for the best results. I'm a bit shaky about the ins and outs of it all though.
If anyone out there can fill me in on the rose pruning details, I'd love to read what you have to tell me!
