rosa banksia fortuniana

After three long pampering years, this April my Fortuniana finally decided to offer me her first blooms! What a joy!

Once I had a garden... until not that long ago, but as life sometimes is, now I forcedly became a balcony gardener. In other words, a gardener without land!
