Last year, on our anniversary....


Gene and Kelly gave us a Disneyland rose! Just this week it bloomed! It is so beautiful! Apparently it missed the heat wave this past month and the blooms appeared unburned. I thought I might have seen a few aphids, but thought we fed it (and debugged) just a few weeks ago. We decided to try the lady bug fix....
We purchased these at our local nursery. Which by the way is amazing! I followed the instructions and let them go last night!

Be free!!!!

Do you see them? There are 2 just under that leaf!

And here is one on a bud!


And on a bloom....
And...

Doing what nature does best! Maybe one day soon we will have babies!
I'm so proud!

we have a rose bush and usually i spray the aphids off with water but the other day i went out and found tons of ladybugs devouring the tiny things...awesome.
