从2007年开始上点规模的种花,与其说上规模,还不如说歪打歪撞得种了一个漂亮的cosmos border。当初种的时候属于brand new beginner,还不知道原来cosmos开花这么多,border可以整个夏天鲜花灿烂一直到11月份。。这一切都是种花的开始。。
到现在为止寻寻觅觅的learning by doing种了100多种花,也终于找到了自己最喜欢的,那就是玫瑰。。初夏到夏天的灿烂,即便是在落叶的深秋,仍然在一轮一轮的绽放,直到冬季的第一场雪。。漫步在花园,玫瑰特有的那种芬芳每每让我感到难以抗拒。。每天下班打开车门,每次在后花园漫步,阵阵玫瑰花的香味扑鼻而来。。那一刻:home, sweet home~~~~~~~~~
回顾种玫瑰花的历程,有一个名字是不能忘记的,那就是heka,让我至今仍然感激不已。当初刚种花的时候懵懵懂懂,对玫瑰的种植品种等等一无所知。在家坦看第一次看到heka的玫瑰花贴,当时瞪大了眼睛倒吸一口凉气:哇,玫瑰可以种得如此的惊艳典雅。。。。同样是heka,在我刚开始种玫瑰花的时候告诉了我david austin rose。。之前,我对david austin rose一无所知。。作为一个brand new beginner,long learning curve是避免不了的。。正是heka的建议,让我受益匪浅,让我从一开始就避免了走弯路,直奔david austin rose。。
在我印象里,david austin rose的同义词就是:浓郁的玫瑰花香,繁多的花瓣,典雅的花型,repeat flowering,大花头密集的开花,长花期, long term sustainable grow。。这都是我最喜欢的。。
下面的玫瑰花是我自2008年种第一株玫瑰开始3年的结果,有一些是2009年,2010年刚种的,仍在日益建设中^^..
