Robyn's Roses: September 28, 2014

Although I've been growing roses since 2005, my online photo journal begins in 2009 and will be added to as my garden progresses. My favorite roses are David Austin English Roses (DA) in every shade of pink.

Climate Zone 8 - Cold-air Basins of California's Central Valley.
Growing season is mid-February through November. This is a valley floor with no coastal influence. Summers are hot (temps get well into the 100's); winter lows range from 29 degrees to 13 degrees F/-2 degrees to -11 degrees C. Rain comes in the cooler months, covering just the early part of the growing season.
