Wednesday Walk at the Rose Garden

in Ladies of Hive2 years ago

The rose garden in town is maintained by volunteers. Most of the volunteers are retirees.

And I bet they are all rosarians.


The volunteer gardeners are deadheading the tired blooms.

When a rose has completed its bloom and it is "spent" or wilted, it should be removed. It keeps roses looking attractive and encourages more blooms.

During the blooming season (Spring or Summer), deadheading a rose bush regularly hardens them for the winter.


Some volunteers are removing dead wood off the roses.

A healthy rose has green live stems. The dead wood on a rose bush is significantly darker and does not support new life.


Others are checking the leaves for pest and diseases.

Fungal diseases such as mildew, blackspot or rust, are common in roses. The leaves may be attacked by aphids or scale or thrips.


I saw a volunteer gardener weeding, and checking the drip system.


And general cleanup and upkeep of the rose garden!


The town is lucky that there are people who devote some of their extra time to helping the community!

Such beautiful rose gardens and cheers to the volunteers for the hard work they do to keep the gardens well maintained

Thanks for joining Wednesday Walk :), I truly enjoy exploring the world virtually each Wednesday seeing walks from all around the globe and feeling I am there and experiencing it all myself, such as I did in your post just now :)

When I retire and I have nothing else to do, I'd volunteer my tome to this garden!
It must be rewarding!

Oh! the work that these people do is commendable, worthy of praise. Those roses look gorgeous and there are many different types. Seems like hot weather, they shouldn't have fungus problems. Another thing is the aphids and other parasites, personally I do not remove the weeds, I integrate them so that they act as a shelter for pest predators such as ladybugs.

Yes, thank goodness for volunteer workers, the roses are healthy.
I don't know about where you live. It is sunny here, almost all the months as I am from California. But these pictures are from my roses. As you can see... fungus... and..

!LOL

If that looks like some mildew. California has a Mediterranean climate, you shouldn't have that problem. Perhaps there is some excess watering or poor ventilation. If the problem persists, you can use a mixture of sulfur and copper powder, used in ecological gardening, at the end of winter. Just when the first buds come out.

Oh, thank you!

Weeding roses is the worst. I did Ok last year in half of a long bed that borders my driveway. But this year the places I didn’t get so well last year is super evident! They are pretty in bloom though.

Wow, a long bed of roses!!! It must be wonderful to drive up you home.
I bet they are pretty.
No wonder you are always so cherry, sis!!!

Such a lovely park. I knew it. It doesn't just grow on its own like wild. They must have someone behind its beauty. Rosarians,thanks for growing them so people in your area can see amazing blooms in summer. Its does makes summer what it is happy and colorful.

In my town, roses can be found everywhere!
They can be found in center divides of streets, and most streets are line with roses!

Thanks for the invite. Will be posting soon.

Looking forward to it, my friend!

I love that volunteers are in charge of this beautiful garden, excellent photos. Thanks for sharing 😊

I came to visit the rose garden because I wanted to be alone with the roses.
To my delight, the volunteers were there!
I got to meet them, and thanked them, @irenenavarroart!

Who can refute the beauty of the rose, its fragrance pulling you into its web?. I love community efforts like this. I especially find these in established places, or places that have some retirees, looking to make a difference. Of course, everyone helps, but, I love to see the older people leading the charge~!!

A beautiful walk today! @alwaysaflower

Indeed!!! Such a delight.
They love the roses, and they love what they are doing.
You should see them handle those roses...
And they moved quietly... they were working, and not chatting around or shouting from one end of the garden to the other!
I told you why I like it there... it is peaceful and quiet.
Yes, I had a lovely walk, @dswigle!

I will have to go visit the Cornwall Rose Garden as spring into summer progresses. It's too early here yet, but It is similar to what you are showing. I can almost smell the roses from your pictures sis. Thanks for sharing and have a lovely day!

Take lots of pictures when you go sis!
I have to say good night early,
as I have a very early meeting tomorrow!
Good night, sis 😍❤️😘

I learned about "Dead Heading" from Liz many years ago, it's amazing to see how many more blooms will start after doing this @silversaver888!😀

Lol so very true @silversaver888, a labor of Love!!😀

Thé is such a great thing to do as a volunteer retiree. How beautifully uplifting. There is already so much joy in gardening so attending to roses is double the pleasure. Nice post.

When I retire, I'll find the time to volunteer!
Isn't is just wonderful, @Momogrow?

I see there are no male retiree/volunteers yet. Where do I apply?

Surprisingly there were none. Yet the long list of donors and volunteers were predominantly males.

That is lovely that the rose garden is maintained by volunteers and I'm sure the retirees love being able to do it.

So beautiful !

I don't have to plant the roses myself, hehehe!
I can just go and visit when I want to see the different varieties
and be overpowered by their scent.
Lovely smells. So beautiful, @jacey.boldart
