Japanese Roses

We have this flower bed, measuring 4 x 2.5 feet which we had explored planting with all sorts of flowers in the past 2.5 years. Zinnias, vincas, lantanas, melapodiums, to name a few...but with not much of success. This was an old picture, took about 1.5 years ago when we had zinnias.

At first, they were blooming so well but soon they became a wild bush. They usually do that when they are shouting for attention. Obviously, we did not shower enough of that...:)

So, about 6 weeks ago, I said, "let's try something else again". In a way, this is the part I like most, exploring new flowers.

So, taa-tah...japanese roses.



I hope they'll last for a while this time, though I don't mind trying out other species...:)

By the way, thanks to Desmond for being the first follower of our blog...:D
