Martha Stewart Rose Blooming in October

Martha Stewart is still holding court in the garden, and she ain’t showing any signs of slowing down. Beautiful, fragrant blooms on the day before Halloween. That’s one of the things I love about growing roses here in the Deep South. While other folks are putting their gardens to bed, we’re still cutting blooms and enjoying the fruits of another growing season. Long growing seasons, mild winters, and roses that keep on producing well into fall. We’ve got it pretty good down here in Alabama. What’s your favorite part about gardening in the Deep South? I’d say a fresh rose bloom in late October is mighty hard to beat.
