Tips for adding a little Romance to your Garden with Roses:
- Climbing Roses — Enjoy the charm of climbing roses clinging to a garden gate, trellis or even an old tree stump. Simply train your climbing rose up a stake in the direction you want it to grow and gently secure the canes with flexible ties.
- Fragrance — As if the names aren’t intoxicating enough, have you ever strolled past a freshly blooming rose bush only to find yourself swooning from the scent in the air? Some roses are beautiful to look at, but they do not possess a strong scent. Add to the ambiance by choosing roses with potent perfumes.
- Color Palette — Sometimes intermingling colors can present a vivid and breathtaking picture. Try mixing corals with deep pinks or lavenders with soft pinks or fuchsias. Velvety reds are also a traditional favorite; and, whites can be stunning too, especially when they have a draped effect.
- Romantic Friends — There are many romantic partners for your roses, here are a few: peonies, lavender, lilacs and jasmine.
“And I will make thee beds of roses and a thousand fragrant posies, a cap of flowers, and a kirtle embroidered all with leaves of myrtle” – Christopher Marlowe in Come Live with Me and be My Love.
And just when you thought a rose was just a rose…

The Book of Lost Fragrances (Hardcover) $16.07 A sweeping and suspenseful tale of secrets, intrigue, and lovers separated by time, all connected through the mystical qualities of a perfume created in the days of Cleopatra—and lost for 2,000 years. Jac L’Etoile has always been haunted by the past, her memories infused with the exotic scents that she grew up surrounded by as the heir to a storied French perfume company. In order to flee the pain of those remembrances—and of her mother’s suicide—she moves to America, leaving the company in the hands of her brother Robbie. But when Robbie hints at an earth-shattering discovery in the family archives and then suddenly goes missing—leaving a dead body in his wake—Jac is plunged into a world she thought she’d left behind.Back in Paris to investigate her brother’s disappearance, Jac discovers a secret the House of L’Etoile has been hiding since 1799: a scent that unlocks the mysteries of reincarnation. The Book of Lost Fragrances fuses history, passion, and suspense, moving from Cleopatra’s Egypt and the terrors of revolutionary France to Tibet’s battle with China and the glamour of modern-day Paris. Jac’s quest for the ancient perfume someone is willing to kill for becomes the key to understanding her own troubled past. |
