Wake up and Smell the Roses

St. Swithin’s Day, (July 15), a day on which, according to folklore, the weather for a subsequent period is dictated. In popular belief, if it rains on St. Swithin’s Day, it will rain for 40 days, but if it is fair, 40 days of fair weather will follow.

 

Rambling roses are an excellent way to make up for a lack of garden space. They can be seen growing up walls, pillars and trellises and over arches.
