Rosal maravilloso: sano, fuerte, refloreciente, excelente fragancia y pocas espinas. Su flor es de un color malva o lavanda hermoso y su forma es grande, llena y esponjosa.
Planté a Olivia Austin en el año 2022, fue el rosal que inició mi andadura en esta afición. Está situada a pleno sol todo el día y es un rosal fuerte, sano y muy productivo. Florece sin parar desde mediados o finales de abril hasta bien entrado octubre. Fragancia, color y forma excelentes.
April 3 today and we are having some wet snow showers for about the past 5 hours. This was as expected but it's 36 degrees out so there's no accumulation. More will come in 3 hours' time, but it won't accumulate. We're going through a bit of a cold spell over the past few days and for another 3-4 days to come. April 8th is forecasted to be 70 degrees. It's that wildly volatile Chicago weather that's for sure.
All of the roses are budding out and just rarin' to go - especially Sexy Rexy and Oh My!. Just about every single budeye on every green cane has pushed out some on all the roses. It's quite a sight and I can't recall having seen this in the past. Perhaps it's a testament to our relatively mild winter and good snow cover when it did get quite cold.
Otherwise, I am just waiting for it to warm up so I can get going with 2024!
