I have always loved roses. My favourite poem when I was a youth was "Rose is a rose is a rose is a rose" (written by Gertrude Stein in 1913). I also have a friend with the name Rose living in UK - so this photo is for you Rose. These roses have a beautiful fragrance. I don't like roses that are not having any fragrance. It's not what the mother nature wanted - but thats just my oppinion.

Blomsterparadis på Orkerød gård til bra priser
"Mirakelbabyen" min springer ut - My "miracle baby" is bluming"
Here is a new photo of the development of this plant I grew from a cutting. See last time I wrote about this bluming - how it has developed. The Man said it was almost like a birth - "It's someting femal about this," he said - I thought is sounded beautiful when he put it like this. So we are really looking forward to when it open up and we can see the blue, the purpul an red inside it. I will post a photo when it happens.

Nattens dronning - min deltaker til frøken stemor, Queen of the Night - my perticipant to Miss Heartsease
2009.
The name of my participant to the yearly Miss Heartsease competition on Moseplassen is " The Queen of the Night". This deep purple Heartsease makes me think of the Queen of the night in Mozarts Opera The Magic Flute. (I have loved this Opera since I was 9 years old). Nearly black with a touch of purple for the royal blood and the golden crown in the middle. The Queen of the Night has the most amazing aria (forward to 2:09 in this YouTube clip to hear the aria), but is still evil. This has always facinating me , how can evil people do beutiful things. So this deep purple flower is my contribution in this competition.
This red Heartsease is not in the competition, but I wanted to have the photo of this here because this is the only red Heartsease I have.

Dagens mirakler - Miracles of the day
The Rhododendro is in full bloom and it i a lot bigger then last year. I have final understood that I had to use a different kind of fertilizer for soil with a lower PH.
Denne planten som jeg har inne har grodd seg stor i fra en stikling jeg tok i fra en plante jeg kjøpte for 4 år siden. Denne blomsten kommer til å bli så vakker. Jeg har sett den en gang før - for 4 år siden. Jeg gleder meg til å se denne stå i full blomst. Jeg skal legge ut bilde når det skjer.
This plant (indoors) I grew from a cutting of a plant I bought 4 years ago. And look there in the middle. It is going to be a beautiful flower. I have seen once befor 4 years ago. I'm lookin so forward to see this bloom fully. I will post a photo of it.

Sandgyvel Norge rundt - Common Broom around Norway
Da jeg var i Kristiansund fikk jeg noen stiklinger av min mors venninne. Det var en sand-gyvel. Hennes sand-gyvel kom opprinnelig fra Bergen hvor hun hadde tatt med stiklinger for mange år siden. Så fra Bergen, via Kristiansund til min hage i Moss. Sand-gyvelen var så pen og så noe slikt ut.When I was away in Kristiansund, one of my mothers friend offered me some cuttings from the shrub Common Broom. Her Common Broom was originally from Bergen where she got some cuttings and brought them to Krisitiansund. Now I got some in my garden in Moss. Her Common Broom was so beautiful. And looked like this. I hope my will look like this too some day.
Stiklingene jeg tok med meg var ganske slappe etter 8 timer i bilen. Jeg hadde puttet de i en plastpose med våt jord i så de overlevde. Det første jeg gjorde var å grave et hull (eller det var vel Mannen som gjorde det;-), hadde så et par-tre never med kukompost og masse vann. Det ser til nå bra ut, men vi får krysse fingrene å se om det går bra.
The cuttings I brought with me looked kind of tired - no wounder after 8 hours in a car. I brougt it with me in a plastic bag with very wet soil around the roots. The first thing I did when I got home was to dig a hole (or the Man did the digging;-), fill in some compost and a lot of water. I hope everything goes well an I I will have the same kind of flowers on my Common Broom.
Det er dette som er så fint med å ha hage - at man kan dele de fine plantene med hverandre.
I love this abour having a garden - you can share plants.
