<\/a><\/p>\nHaruka and Camille drove up to to the big city\u00a0early one pretty morning to get ideas and inspiration from the Raleigh Municipal Rose Garden.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
ROMANTIC<\/h3>\n
The garden features perfumed air and shaded benches that we hear tell from some of our friends is the perfect spot\u00a0for a first kiss.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Hybrid tea roses manifest beauty.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n The intoxicating aromas bring out the best in everyone. Camille and Haruka soon found themselves enveloped in happy halos.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Although we did not see anyone around, it is obvious that these plants are receiving the utmost in care.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n One of the hallmarks of a great rose is a long, straight stem.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n As the heat of the day began to creep up on us, we took one last look around and climbed the steps up to Christine for the drive home.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n We discovered a great\u00a0place to buy roses that will flourish in our climate, Whitherspoon Rose Culture<\/a> in Durham. Their show garden rivals the Raleigh Rose Garden.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n \u00a0 Every kind of rose, from hybrid teas to climbers!<\/p>\n <\/p>\n It was hard to pick just a few, but we had done our homework and were after Chrysler Imperial (red), Double Delight (crimson and cream) and Stainless Steel (white) – all hybrid teas noted for their fragrance.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n They are still in pots but putting off one intoxicating bloom after another. On the left is Chrysler Imperial with its strong damask rose smell and Fragrant Cloud, bought online and noted for its strong, sweet and spice rose aroma on the right.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Double Delight, with a delicious strong spicy rose fragrance and noted for it’s disease resistance, threatens to steal the show.<\/p>\n Camille woke one day in June with Rose Fever, passing it to Haruka and Bob and inspiring us to take a stab at growing hybrid tea roses organically. – June, 2015 <\/p>\n <\/p>\n RALEIGH RECONNAISSANCE <\/p>\n \n Haruka and Camille drove up to to the big city early one pretty morning to get […]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":8690,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[5],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-8647","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-sub-story","odd"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/troutsfarmtoo.com\/latest\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/8647","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/troutsfarmtoo.com\/latest\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/troutsfarmtoo.com\/latest\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/troutsfarmtoo.com\/latest\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/troutsfarmtoo.com\/latest\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=8647"}],"version-history":[{"count":11,"href":"https:\/\/troutsfarmtoo.com\/latest\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/8647\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":12436,"href":"https:\/\/troutsfarmtoo.com\/latest\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/8647\/revisions\/12436"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/troutsfarmtoo.com\/latest\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/8690"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/troutsfarmtoo.com\/latest\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=8647"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/troutsfarmtoo.com\/latest\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=8647"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/troutsfarmtoo.com\/latest\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=8647"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}\u00a0\u00a0<\/a><\/p>\nDROP-DEAD PRETTY<\/h3>\n
