Happy May Day

 Hi Everyone

~Happy May Day~
{Love}
the May Day tradition of
  hanging flowers on the front door for good luck and a Happy Home!!!

I did a little experiment and I am amazed at the results.

Every year I fertilize our roses and keep my fingers crossed for beautiful blooms

♥

This year I found a wonderful new

rose

fertilizer that has worked wonders in our garden

It is called

Jobe"s Knock Out Rose Food

and the best part is it is organic

and only costs 8.99 at Home Depot for a big bag
{warning it smells really awful}
wear gloves and hold your nose

  Now to be fair I decided to test this fertilizer
I did not fertilize one of my
rose bushes
just to see if it really works

 here is the
rose bush
I did not fertilize

Here is the same rose bush with the fertilizer

Such a dramatic difference 

These are 

Iceberg Roses

which do not have much fragrance 

but they are disease free and easy to grow

Here is a bouquet of flowers I received via email from

a wonderful follower

Thank You Sweet friend 

Love the tin can and the little jute ribbon

too cute

♥

I shall pass these on to all of you today

romantic saying for today

"Absence sharpens Love presence strengthens it"
