About Me
- Reflection Through The Seasons
- I live in a small Welsh village which is situated in the southern tip of the Snowdonia National Park. Its an area of true outstanding natural beauty. We have the Cambrian mountains to the east of us and the coast of Cardigan Bay out to the west. My husband and I moved to Wales from The Cotswolds in England 19 years ago. We bought the old village Police Station, which we have worked tirelessly renovating ever since. You could say its a real labour of love. I have retired after working many years in the travel business, this now leaves me free to pursue the many things in life that I enjoy.

You can imagine how much I'm drooling Marion! The Geoff Hamilton is such a wonderful soft pink! Was the Alan Titchmarch a simiar color?
Or course, I love them all!
And the book is such a beautiful present from your thoughtful husband.
Lucky girl! :)
Hope you don't have much trouble deciding where to put them!
what a lovely book. i have several books with photos of flowers and on cold bleak days of winter i go to bed and look at the pictures.
Love your picks Marion. My roses have not faired so well this summer- have seen them do better. The sun has just peeped out from behind the clouds here :). l will grab the few moments to get out in the garden ~ wish the weather would pick up a bit again. Lovely to come by your blog today and see you back online - looks like your feeling a bit better, getting out and about with your husband- lovely.
Take care,
The Geoff Hamilton is stunning!
Hi! Marion,
we can get David Austin Roses down here in aussie as well. but I did not know they had gardens and a shop etc. how wonderful what I would have done to be with you on this day, they are the best roses but cost a lot of money here.
Your choice of Roses are wonderful but what a hard thing to do choose...............I'll take one of everything thanks!!! :o)
see you again real soon.
Wonderful choice Marion, especially Geoff Hamilton is beautiful, I saw it at our garden center last weekend and it was hard to resist! Oh your garden will get heavenly with all your new rose trasures! I also saw that book cover in the catalog, it's gorgeous! How nice of John to buy it for you!
Beautiful roses. With roses like that, Marion, you will have to join the Open Garden Scheme, and then you will have an excuse to buy more....lol.
That book will sustain you through the winter months and provide many hours of drooling, too.
