I have...gardening envy! To live in a place where things bloom in December and it rarely snows. Oh well! I enjoyed your photos very much. I'll have to remember about the coffee grounds trick. Happy GBBD.

What a sight for deprived eyes! Roses are one of the last plants to stop blooming in my garden. A light frost doesn't really faze them. I suppose it has to be the right kind of roses.

Hi Christine...I'm surprised that the blooms keep coming although the days have been mostly sunny and 50 degrees or so. But our nights are colder than normal.
