The air is filled with the scent of roses and the humming of insects. The garden is full of blossom and poetry. Time to stop and smell the roses…time to enjoy their ethereal beauty. 🙏
Die Luft ist erfüllt vom Duft der Rosen und dem Summen der Insekten. Der Garten ist voller Blüten und Poesie. Zeit innezuhalten und an den Rosen zu schnuppern, ihre flüchtige Schönheit zu geniessen. 🙏




















Thanks to Cathy for hosting the vase on a Monday – please pop over to her to see what others have come up with today. My vase features Astrantia, Leucanthemum and lots of roses…hmmm, heavenly scent! ☺️ Wishing you a flower-filled week!
Vergesst nicht, euch bei Cathy die Vasen der anderen Blogger anzuschauen. In meiner Vase seht ihr Astrantia, Leucanthemum und gaaaaanz viele Rosen…welch himmlischer Duft! ☺️ Ich wünsche euch eine blumengefüllte Woche!




Oh my gosh, your vase is quite perfect, and seeing the roses in your garden!! La Belle Sultane I think may be my favourite, although the white one, at the beginning, against the stone wall..so beautiful!
She’s gorgeous indeed! And Rosa sancta is certainly one of my favourites too. Thanks for stopping by 🙂
Wow, wunderschön 🥰
danke 🙂
vielen Dank 🙏
You live in heaven, Annette, thanks for sharing it with us. ❣️
It’s always nice to be able to share beauty, especially in this world in which it is often overlooked. Hope all is well with you x
My goodness your flowers are just gorgeous. As I scrolled through I wondered what beautiful arrangement you would make. I could smell it from here. What a beautiful arrangement and garden. I agree, you live in heaven.
Thank you, Donna, my garden is my refuge and although the roses are so fleeting, they give me much joy. Glad you were able to smell the scent – it’s truly gorgeous 😀
Einfach nur toll, ich bin von den Socken!
ich auch um diese Jahreszeit 😀
Eine so schön wie die andere! Ich könnte unmöglich eine Favoritin herauslesen. Und der Strauß ist herrlich romantisch, die Essenz des Sommers 🌹. Geniesse es!
Merci, Esther, mir geht es wie dir, alle sind speziell.
Glorious roses, Annette, and no wonder your garden is your very own Garden of Eden! I have always loved astrantia too so your vase is a delight – thanks for sharing it
The Astrantia are doing well ever since I’ve moved them to the potager where they get more water. One of my favourites 🙂
Me too 👍
Was für ein wunderbarer, verschwenderischer Überfluss, mit der Gelassenheit – sich nächstes Jahr aufs Neue
auszuschütten.
Ein sehr schöner, üppiger Strauß.
Meinen schönsten Strauß sehe ich , wenn ich in Nachbars Garten schaue. Sie lassen immer ein Stück Wiese
lange stehen und nun blühen über und über Margeriten und viele andere Wiesenblumen. ( Du weist, ich kenn mich nicht aus…)
Herzlichst, Angela
Das hast du sehr poetisch ausgedrückt 🙏 wir sollten uns an ihnen ein Beispiel nehmen. Die Margeriten übernehmen hier auch langsam den Garten, so gibt’s reichlich Blumen für die Vase. Liebe Grüße
Wow, when your roses arrive they do it in a grand style! I’m not sure I’ve seen a rose display that abundant here outside of an botanic garden. I love your arrangement too. I wish I could grow Astrantia – I’ve tried and failed twice now but then I even have limited success with roses.
Hi Kris, I haven’t even shown all of them. 😀 I had the Astrantia in a border before but they didn’t thrive at all. Then I moved them to the potager where they get watered regularly, they haven’t looked back. The plant comes from moist meadows in coolish mountain areas, no wonder they sulk in our gardens.
C‘est vraiment le paradis😍
Toll eingefangen, liebe Annette, du hast ein solches Auge fürs Fotografieren und Filmen. Danke auch für die stimmungsvollen YT videos. 🙏
Das freut mich! vielen Dank ☺️
Gorgeous, all of it. Your roses are luscious and the scent must be amazing. Love the vase with all its colors and textures. I hope you cut more to enjoy in the house.
They’re growing so vigorously, blocking paths that I can cut plenty at the moment without feeling guilty. And yes, the scent is truly amazing. Have a good week, Amy
How wonderful your roses are Annette! I wonder if you have a favourite or two? It must smell so good in your garden. 😃 The bowl of roses et al is so uplifting. 🤗 Wishing you some gentle overnight rain that won’t spoil them.
No such luck and no more rain in sight but at least it’s cooler. My favourite roses are definitely the Louis Lens roses, Tapis volant being one of the most charming. 🙂
I knew you had some beautiful roses Annette but really didn’t have a sense of just how many. I can only imagine the experience of being surrounded by their beauty and scent. Your vase is over the top gorgeous.
Thank you, Susie, and these are only some of them. Thinking of how short the average attention span is these days I didn’t want to push my luck. 😉 I’m delighted that you like the bouquet, it was more about arranging than plonking this time 😀
Now that must be a perfect rose bowl full of choice roses.
I just can’t begin to imagine the scent that must float through the air in your garden Annette! It must be an absolute pleasure to sit and breath it in. You are certainly spoilt for choice when it comes to filling vases 😂
Oh, wouldn’t it be nice if we could press the pause button, Anna, I’d love to be able to enjoy this lushness a little bit longer 🙂
Oh Annette your garden looks absolutely divine! Magical … such beauty my friend. Thank you for sharing your slice of heaven 😊
And thanks to you for joining me, just wish we could have tea and a chat together. 🤗
Oh wouldn’t that be just wonderful .. 🤗
