Your blooms are ALL lovely - the roses and hydrangeas are gorgeous but I simply LOVE the little "blue daze".
Happy GBBD :)

Stunning roses you have, of course your other flowers are beautiful too. My Grandma had gorgeous roses but I am not a good rose gardener, I appreciate yours instead!

Naks! another tip that I can use for my roses...banana peels. :) Do I crush it first or just place it directly on the medium? thanks!

ANGEL said...

kingdom! haven't heard from you for like two weeks? busy ka? where are the pictures na?

regarding banana peels, i just cut them into smaller pieces, or if i'm lazy, which is usually the case, i pop them on a blender then bury them near my rose plants roots. happy gardening!

Kingdom said...

Hi Angel. Yup, quite busy...but not when I'm in my garden. haha! I'll try your second option, because I am lazy most of the time. hehehe. Thanks!
