Beautiful Flowers

I just picked some rosebuds that are starting to open and they are Blue Moon Roses...……..

I've just been out and picked a vase of the most beautiful roses to put in the bedroom this evening so when I am awake and worrying they will give my mind a different focus.  Mine are dark red, bright yellow and a deep apricot - such a picture.  Anne

@Sister True oh wise one!

Goats adore them!  I guess when you think about it, it makes sense.  After all, we use rosehips and rosewater to flavour treats.

Is there any creature that doesn't eat them?!

Cows and Horses eat my roses over the Paddock fence  ho hum ..... 

 :o 

Roos love roses too!

I think I could live with an alpaca pruning various shrubs. What pisses me off is the bower bird. 

The little bugger rearranges screws, rivets, nails and even tools in the shed. His bower is decorated well with our stuff.

Gorges himself on mulberries. We have put a stop to his mulberry thieving by netting the trees. Now he marches up and down outside the netting muttering all sorts of dire consequences!

I didn't know possums were keen on rose sprouts till recently. I have a very old (as in aged, not type) rose near a fence and noticed a couple of weeks ago that it had been massacred. Some netting and it's recovering but I will need to watch it in the future.
