2 for 1 Gardens
#GW2for1
ne of my earliest gardening
memories is helping my grandad
to weed his rose beds. They
contained nothing but roses,
apart from a neat row of aubrieta
lining the smartly clipped lawn,
and keeping the bare soil
between the bushes weed-free
was of paramount importance.
I was about five at the time, and
the task felt like a monotonous
chore, far removed from all that
I love about gardening today.
My grandad was a gardener of his time and, despite nearly 40 years
having passed, I love
roses
as much as he did – even if I grow them in
a very different way. There’s no bare soil in my garden and my roses
are combined with other plants to create a more jumbled look. That’s
not to say roses don’t play a starring role in some areas. In my front
garden I’ve planted them in a way I think my grandad would have
liked – I’ve used just two white ones (Iceberg and
Margaret Merril),
underplanted with
Geranium
Rozanne
and
lady’s mantle.
This
simple four-plant scheme really works, and the
roses
are always
a conversation starter for passers-by when I’m tending them.
That’s the thing about roses – they often create an emotional
response and encourage people to talk, usually about a memory or
loved ones. And it’s not surprising that roses are routinely voted as
the nation’s favourite flower – they just mean so much to people.
So we’re putting the spotlight on roses in this issue – turn to p58
to discover why they’re at the heart of one gardener’s plot, plus
how to get the best from your own roses.
And do enjoy your garden this month – June is special with borders
fit to burst and near endless hours of daylight. Make the most of it.
