Welcome to The Beauty of a Rose

The beauty of a Rose so elegant and graceful. The most popular flowering shrub in the world over. It is known to express and evoke love, beauty, friendship and passion! No other flower can deliver such a variety of sentiments! I recently found an interest in taking beautiful photos of roses and would like to share these with others who find roses as beautiful and interesting as I do! I will include wonderful photos, tips, and interesting information on several types of roses! Some beautiful rose gardens and ideas to arrange roses.

Secrets for a Luscious Rose Garden


- for brighter and bigger roses add about 1/4 cup of epsom salts around the base of your rose bush! This will get soaked into the soil as it rains!
-pruning your rose bush is a definite requirement for healthy roses, be sure you remove old branches and dead leaves as soon as you can
-be sure to use a fertilizer on your rose bushes to prevent disease and pests from harming them
- roses need a lot of sunshine so be sure to plant them where they get sun for 5 to 6 hours a day

Tips for Cutting Roses

Choose a bud that is just beginning to open, approx. 1/3 open. Cut roses using a pair of sharp pruners, leaving a few leaves attached. Immediately after cutting immerse stems in water. If taking indoors cut stems again on an angle and then place in desired container. To extend life use a floral preservative or add a squeeze of lemon + a tbsp. of sugar to the water. Change the water as necessary! Enjoy!

Poetry

The Rose - Poetry by S. Kuhn

The Rose

A red, red rose
In a flower bed
It stands alone
Bowing its head
And then the rain
Pours on its love
The sun comes out
And beams down from above
The precious rose perks
Up its head
And thanks its friends
For being fed.

    Every time.. EVERY TIME...I come to your beautiful lenses, the colors grab me. You are such a wizard in the visual sense that I can smell the roses. I almost tried to sniff one... You get more and more determined that I will be buying my stamps and cards from you, don't you ;) Love this lens and yes, I will be soon.
