Gardening has given me the joy and excitement to keep on living,to be thankful and to appreciate little things that most of us has taken for granted. In this channel, I will be sharing my life in Germany as a Filipina, my activities in my small rose garden in all four season of a year, my travels and favourite recipe of cake, pastry and food. My wish is to impart little joy and encourage viewers to take time to relax, to be aware of life and be part of nature. To live nowadays in this high technology environment, I noticed a lot of people are suffering from burn out, students pressured to learn so many things which are sometimes not needed in reality." Take time to breath and smell a rose", that's the phrase I always remind myself everyday. Facebook @ Rosegarden Gems TikTok @ rosegardengems
Have you counted how many roses you have , they look so beautiful, I’ve lost count how many I have , it’s like my guilty secret 🤫.❤ Do you have 3 favourites? I love Guara too .
Excellent video ~ I love that you show the whole plant!! ~ do the leaves have Black Spot?, do the flowers droop?, showing the rain flower damage ~ This was so helpful!! Thank you!! ~ from Washington state, USA
Thanks Rakesh! I was happy to see roses I have not seen yet, I like the form of 'Grobian rose' and how floriferous 'Jasmina' was. This Rosarium even has a green rose.🌹
Thank you for watching and for your honest comment. I did watch it myself and I know what you mean that’s why my sons bought me a DJI. I have to watch out in my next video my movements. I wish you a lovely day!🌹
Your roses look lovely Gemma. Most of mine are just starting their second flush. We have Gaura here in England but I've never seen one as big as yours. I had it in my old garden but it didn't survive. Your blackberries look wonderful. When I was a little girl, I used to go blackberry picking with my friends. There were no mobile phones in those days so we were always outside enjoying ourselves.
What a great place to visit Gemma. I never tire of seeing roses. I am very excited as I am going to David Austin's in Shropshire when we are on holiday next week. I keep writing down the roses that I want to buy but my list is getting longer!
Hello Wendy! Sorry for this delayed response. I hope your visit at David Austin had met your expectations. I’m excited to know which roses you’ve got! A lovely day to you!🌹
@@rosegardengems Hello Gemma, I hope that you are okay. Our trip to David Austin's was wonderful with still lots of colour to see. It wasn't really the best time of the year to go as a lot of the ramblers had finished and there was plenty of deadheading to be done but we almost had the place to ourselves. I've been re- watching a video on Paul T's World and I could see what things were like when the roses were at their best. It was so hard narrowing down my list of "wants" as you can imagine! I came away with Ancient Mariner, Emily Bronte (which smells lovely and I can't understand why I've not bought her before), Harlow Carr and Tottering by Gently. The car was pretty full going home as amongst the roses we had all of our luggage and I'd also bought A Bill Mckenzie Clematis from the garden centre which was by our holiday cottage. I would definitely return to David Austin's if I get the opportunity and I forgot to mention that the staff were really helpful when I asked them about Linda's (Soulgirlktf) Elizabeth rose as it had produced two different coloured blooms. Take care Gemma. x
Thank you and so nice of you to visit my garden. We have as of now high summer temperatures so the roses look different compared to a mild weather. A lovely day to you!🌹
Thank you very much Gemma for taking us to this garden, particularly the Duftgarten! ❤🙏And the icing on the cake: you featured my favourite rose Alec's Red!! This rose rarely gets a mention nowadays. She has the most wonderful fragrance, definitely reminiscent of lychees, the plumpest, juiciest and near seedless variety! Heavenly! So now I must try to have a sniff of rose Fragonard. Sorry I don't understand German, what did your son say about Fragonard and Alec's Red? Thank you!
Hello! Thanks for your visit and lovely comment. Alec’s Red rose is not only heavily scented but stunning with its shape. My son said, it is also very good but he finds Fragonard scent a level higher. I’m planning to get Fragonard rose too! A lovely Sunday to you!🌹
Absolutely enjoyed the garden tour video. That Mary Ann look stunning. We would like to see more fragrant roses from the garden. If you find Kordes rose Weisse Wolke/White cloud in blooms, please share. Thank you.
Cool Lin, Kevin is 26, I do enjoy spending time with my son and they do know my likes, roses, gardens, castles and big city travels. I’m happy they’re understanding with my hobbies. A lovely Sunday to you!❤️🌹
Hi Gemma, thanks for the tour, some beautiful roses there, what a lovely place to visit. It was nice to see you and your son enjoying the roses so much, have a lovely weekend, take care.
Hallo Linda! I did enjoy it with my son, he likes scent from different perfumes so I suggested to experience the scent of the roses. A lovely Sunday to you!❤️🌹
I have a hedgerow of Olivia Austin roses from bear root , I can’t wait for them to get the height of yours , mine are flowering well but only short as 9 months old . Love your tall white Ilse Krohn ❤ just looked Peter Beales sell it in UK and says hardly no scent . Think I believe you 😊 maybe breeding over years it’s lost its scent .
Hello! Thank you so much for visiting my channel! I’m sure Olivia Rose Austin as a rose hedgerow will be an eyecatcher in your garden next year. Yes! Ilse Krohn has a strong scent. It fills the space with its scent. I wish you a love lovely day.🌹
Hello! My German is not perfect but I can communicate well with my friends. I do sometimes use German in 1 or 3 videos in this channel. Yes! Quark is not easily available in some countries.🌹
Congratulations, Gemma, for the new roses . Such a beautiful selection added to your beautiful garden . I bought anuschka rose recently but am still waiting for her blooms to open . It's still a baby plant. I am happy to see her in your video because honestly I bought her because she won the baden baden competition but did see her much in social media. I'm still not sure about her if I like her or not.
Hello! I do looked at roses with titles with high hopes and great expectations. 'Anuschka' has a lovely dark pink colour and incredible sweet fruity scent. I still have to observe her scent, its base note is somewhat surprising. I wish you a lovely day!🌹
My earth angel has been a let down so far! I had about 3 buds so far that never fully opened. I have heard it takes many years to establish and take off.
Hello! Thanks for your visit in my garden! My 'Earth Angel was not performing well in the first year, it was planted as bare root, this year is its 2nd year and it’s thriving very well with lots of buds and flowers. It took time to half open its bud and maintained its globular shape. I think, yours is still in adjusting phase, how long is it in your garden? May I ask? I wish you a lovely day!🌹
Wow! Christmas come early. Not quite what you were expecting but soon rectified. The roses looked in lovely condition. Some lovely additions to your garden Gemma. I shall be awaiting your updates. Cheers! P.
Hi Gemma, Loved the video of your roses. It always amazes me where all those wonderful petals come from. Nature is so wonderful and it's all there for the taking. We're so lucky. Happiness is rose shaped. P.
Hello Peter! You’re right, nature has a lot to offer and in my experience, it’s very rewarding and even therapeutic plus the opportunity to smell the different varieties of scent in a rose.🌹
Hi Gemma, that's a happy rose day wow beautiful ! Nice to hear Tantau sorted their error out quickly for you. Anuschka a very pretty colour. Enjoy planning your new rose beds it will be stunning, I'm looking forward to your updates, take care, happy planting ! 🌹
Hello Linda, Thanks! Yes! A lot of work today, my mind is imagining already the outcome but my body is very slow with work, needs a lot of digging. I’m glad, we have suitable weather, cloudy and rain everyday. It’s cold actually for me and we are in the middle of summer. I’m missing your garden, I look forward to seeing your beautiful plants! A lovely day to you!🌹🌹🌹
@@rosegardengems Hi Gemma it's exciting but hard work too, you have a lot to plant, take your time don't over do it, hopefully you can get some help with the digging. It will be amazing when it's done I can't wait to see it. We still have the landscapers here so my garden is upside down at the moment I am itching to do some gardening but have to be patient not something I'm good at ! Take care, enjoy your gardening.
Hello Naomi, Thanks! The roses were nicely packed. I haven’t seen your garden for so long now, you also have roses. It would be long day work for me today in the garden. A lovely day to you!🌹🌹🌹
Good morning there Lin, I’m sure you will like her too! True, you and Ken have German roses. I’m looking forward to see your latest video later!Enjoy your day in the garden, I have so much to do today with the new arrangement. Oh! You’re also busy there with your patio, I hope everything goes well!🌹🌹🌹
True Nik, I was excited to have 6 and one is free, Ozeana is already on the way here. Yes! I will be able to enjoy them, our weather this week and next week is favourable to the roses, it’s chilly for me. Enjoy your garden!🌹🌹🌹
@@rosegardengems You're right, I think, cooler weather does seem to suit the roses, but my wife is suggesting we put the heating on in the house for ourselves.
It's always nice to hear about good customer service especially when an error has been made and corrected. I once had some bedding plants missing from an order and I never heard anything after I had made my first phone call. I had to chase the firm again and I got the impression that they were hoping that I'd just go away and forget about the missing plants. It did get sorted eventually but it's put me off ordering from that firm in the future. I love the colour of your new Anuschka and I expect that you are looking forward to planting it along with the others.
Hello Wendy! Anuschka is super, another mesmerising scent. I’m glad Rosen Tantau is realiable, this is not my first order to them and they are professional in dealing with their client same with Kordes. It’s good that you were able to settle in your experienced , it’s really annoying if a problem like this comes and the supplier is not caring or very slow in their response. Do you have a rose garden too? Do you have realiable supplier in your place? A lovely day to you!🌹🌹🌹
@@rosegardengems Hello Gemma, My garden has a lot of roses (mainly David Austin) but I have lots of perennials and annuals too. I love sowing seeds and watching them grow. This year has been dreadful for slugs and snails so I lost an awful lot of seedlings. My garden is usually full of Sunflowers by now but I only have about six. The slugs seemed to like them! I don't have a RU-vid channel as I'm not very good with technology! I buy all of my roses from the local garden centres and I keep adding to my collection after seeing all the beautiful gardens on RU-vid. I am very excited as I am going to a new garden centre today so I have a long list of plants that I hope to buy! Have a lovely day Gemma and thank you for showing us your gorgeous garden.
@@wendybartlett6717Hello Wendy! It’s a pity not to see your garden, it must be very inspirational, scented and beautiful. David Austin have stunning roses mostly with scents. Yes! I understand that excitement going to a garden shop and looking for specific plant after watching gardener’s RU-vidr. Worst is when I go to different garden exhibitions and you have all those beautiful rare perennials and popular roses. Good thing your sowing your own seeds and most of the perennials are self seeding. Perennials are becoming expensive here in Germany ranging from 8 Euro to 25 in garden Centers but you can buy them cheaper in discounters. Ciao!🌹🌹🌹
Lovely Gemma. I was excited when I saw this video I have to say. Piano awesome best of luck with it. When I saw it breathtaking. Did you speak to them about the spray? Sorry to hear about the ozeana, I’m sure you will get it soon. And I can’t wait to see it. :) best of luck with them Gemma I’m sure they will be awesome
Thanks Jay Jay! I’m happy to have the space, it’s always a great feeling to have new additions to my garden. Oh! I have forgotten to ask. A lovely day to you!🌹🌹🌹
True, my roses and garden make me alive and happy everyday. It’s hard work to maintain the garden, with so much rain this summer, the weeds are incredibly growing fast and healthy, easily taking over the beds so a lot of TLC for the roses. The rewards however for the hard work is be able to hold and smell the stunning flowers right in your garden. A lovely day to you Wendy!🌹🌹🌹
Hi Gemma. Thank you for a lovely garden tour. I used the word “ ombré” which means shade in French. It describes when tones fade into each other. I love the Parfuma roses and Lady Capri is gorgeous!
Thanks for learning new words from you Lin! How’s your renovation going on now in your garden? My quest for searching Emma Bridgewater rose is on hold now, it’s not possible to buy in Germany. I ordered roses instead from German growers for my new space in the garden. A lovely day to you!🌹🌹🌹
Your garden videos are always awesome and we know about few more fantastic roses. Only Francis Meilland/Prince Jardiniere I have and it has great old rose fruity fragrance. That Domino, Lady Capri and Madame Annisette are simply stunning.
Thanks Rakesh for your kind comment. You have yourself an exquisite collection of roses and you know most of the international names. BTW, I looked at help me find the kinda blue rose, I was surprised to see your rose picture there. 🌹🌹🌹
@@rosegardengemsI feel Help me find has created a very useful resource for us. So I am contributing in it as a gardener may be useful to fellow gardener.
Awesome Gemma. That rose I can’t even spell it. Around 7 minute mark. I honestly didn’t know you had it. Great rose that looks awesome in the flesh. I’m sure you can sort that out. Yes I think it’s natures way of dealing with the situation. But I know that rose looks lovely and you can see it in your video
Hi Gemma, thank you for the tour of your stunning roses, very beautiful. I hope you feel better soon, colds and coughs seem to be doing the rounds. Your garden is looking wonderful, so much colour and I only wish we had smelly vision ! Here tonight it is very windy too and light rain. Perennial Domino is very pretty I love the colour. Madam Anisette, very beautiful I almost bought her at the start of the year when I bought Chantal Thomass which also has a strong anise type fragrance too. You have such a lovely collection of roses and other plants I see in your garden, it's obviously much loved and you can see the hard work that has gone in to create it, very pretty, thanks again for sharing your garden, take care and I hope you feel better soon.
Hello Linda, I just came back from the doctor and got a strong medicine. I was advice not to work so much in the garden with the heat now. How can I take that, I am in the middle of rearranging my two center beds. My son was able to remove the boxwoods infested by 🐛 which were 13 years embedded in the garden. Now, I’m smiling ear to ear I have a new space to work with the roses. I love your garden arrangement, you even have special clematis and other perennials accompanying your roses. Additionally, you have beautiful rose plants from cuttings. A lovely day to you!🌹🌹🌹
Love your grand tours Gemma , we get to see so much more. Lady capri and Mary Ann has now been added to my wish list. Just as well I have Madame annisete. Her fragrance is amazing, indescribable fragrance. She is in my top 10 most fragrant rose. The ombré effects was said by my sister, haven’t a clue what that mean?😢 Ps. Many congratulations for reaching the important milestone..🎉🎉🎉of 1k subscribers
Hello Ken, the three ladies, Lady Capri, Mary Ann and Madame Anisette are really good choices for their appearance and unique scent. Noblesse rose if you have seen my video has a remarkable scent, very strong but it was easily damaged by heat and rain. I am searching now for Charisma rose from Noack German rose grower, I saw it in Bamberg rose garden, beautiful colour and exquisite scent. I’m patiently awaiting for your part 2 of scented roses, the top ten. I’m going to do that but still have to finish my tour. A lovely day to you.🌹🌹🌹
Thank you for your vedio. I think for sure I will buy lady capri rose because its amazing, really . 😂 thank you for sharing us your information about your roses ❤❤❤❤❤
Thank you for taking time to watch, this one was quite long. It’s my pleasure to share my personal experiences with my roses in the garden. A lovely day to you!🌹🌹🌹
Hello Isabel, yes, Frau Bender’s garden is really beautiful, there’s just few roses mixture of old and modern but the plants are all happy with the space and very healthy. A lovely evening to you!🌹🌹🌹
Yes Lin! I’m a member of this German Catholic women association and we have plenty of activities and also few days trips. I’m enjoying it very much. 🌹🌹🌹
Amazing roses! And a delight to see a community coming together with a shared interest. Some of those rose products seem very tempting - rose-flavoured Sekt!
The rose Sekt was really delicious and you can make that with the old roses. I’m enjoying being a part of this association and we have lots of activities throughout the year. Thanks Nik!🌹🌹🌹
