Basement Rose "Nursery"

 


Just because Winter is on the way, doesn't mean the growing stops around here! A room in the basement will serve as a rose Nursery for the next several months. Several hundred roses should be ready next Spring! From rooted cuttings, to plugs, and even some trade one gallons. Iceberg,  New Dawn, The Fairy, Orchid Masterpiece,  Golden Showers,  Eden and more! I have another Barrina grow light on the way. This is a room that we're already heating and lighting, so that helps avoid extra cost to set them up outdoors.
It got colder quicker than the weatherman predicted, (imagine that!), so yesterday evening was a run mad race to get succulents inside until the little greenhouse is better buttoned up. What a mess lol! 
I still have quite a bit of work to do before those 20's roll in. I hate to see all of my beautiful flowers going to sleep for the winter, but such is life. Gives us something to look forward to each Spring, right? Just fill up your house with plants, like someone I know very well, and you'll have plenty of growing to do and enjoy this Winter! 😇😄🌱
