A rosebud from some miniature roses we are growing on our farm. They are so pretty and delicate. Unfortunately some kind of insect is finding them a tasty treat because they are nibbling away at all the blossoms. We'll have to spray them with something to save them. Posted by Picasa

    Nice blog...
    I have a natural remedy for ur problem - Garlic
    Growing Garlic around Roses will keep the pests away. The oils deter some of the pests away and also enhances the fragrance of the flowers.
