Rose gardens milwaukie or






Pink lotus blossom - "God is Love" with hearts. Free e-Card by eMail to remind your best friends of God's love. God loves all, you and all your enemies included. Keep that in mind when you start fighting anyone.
Just imagine how stressful it is to have your very own children fighting or even killing each other. The very same it is for God to see his children fighting each other on earth.
Search for "solutions of love" rather than solutions or war. To absolutely every situation on earth - no matter what - there always is a solution of love that either exists or can be created.

This year's Tatton soundtrack might have to include: It only happens when it rains, raindrops keep falling on my head, singing in the rain... I could go on, so please let me know if you have any less clichéd suggestions. But, there's no getting away from it, the weather for the build up has been truly appalling. It's been a challenge for the show organisers, garden designers, nursery folk and TV crews alike. High-vis jacket-wearing was extended the full duration of press day yesterday as conditions got muddier.

And somehow, against the wet, slate-coloured skies, the plants of high summer seem all the more vibrant. From show gardens to nursery stands, the stars of the show are easily gem-like crocosmias in a glorious range of orange shades from tangerine to gold; flat heads of raspberry ripple achilleas are also stand out performers.

But my favourite plant combination today was the gorgeously delicate Agrostis nebulosa with Astrantia 'Roma' - a fuzzy cloud of bronze grass with jewel-like blooms just peeping through, unfazed by the downpours, raindrops glistening prettily as the sun re-emerged.
