Happy Dance!

The skies finally gave in and brought some rain! By Friday at 5:30 we had received 2-1/2 inches!

During my days off my rain indicator was kicking in.

The rose petals on the ground show a fiesta of their own.

A little history

This blog began back in 2008 as a view to the display gardens at the San Antonio retail location. Since then, the author has relocated and the retail location in San Antonio has been closed (July 2012). This blog will remain active and post items relating to the original Antique Rose Emporium location in Brenham, Texas.

A quote from Gertrude Jekyll

A garden is a grand teacher. It teaches patience and careful watchfulness; it teaches industry and thrift; above all it teaches entire trust.

I am employed by The Antique Rose Emporium. My time on this blog as well as my other work-related internet duties are compensated by The Antique Rose Emporium. I am obviously presenting the best perspective of the nursery and our products. Just in case you wanted to know...
