    Hi chaps.

    I keep meaning to post some pictures on an album of my garden, but I can't upload from my phone. I rarely get to the house computer so I've decided to post a link to my 'our garden' board on Pinterest.

    I had the idea when I was posting on a rose thread yesterday.

    Hope you all like my pics and flowers! I've got a lot to thank you all for. Gardening has become my absolute love and I've learned more from this forum than any books. Four years into my gardening hobby I'm still learning but really proud of what I've learned so far.

      Thank you - I see you have a Flickr link - that's a good idea! When I've cut my grass I'll have a look at your album.

        Thank you Jenny. We have a habit of buying roses to remember people or as gifts for each other so we do seem to be accumulating them! Geoff Hamilton is very special as my husband bought it to remember his Grandfather just before he died. He bought it with birthday money his Gramps had given him, and he was very ill with the final stages of cancer at the time. It was nice to be able to plant it while he was still alive.

        Jude the Obscure was a present to my husband on our anniversary. David Austin roses do seem to be in a different class when it comes to health, vigour and bloom. It is our favourite rose without a doubt.
