Roses in Malmö

One of the best things about June and July in Malmo is the roses blooming all along the streets. Our morning walks the last few weeks have been full of the most beautiful blooms. I’m a little envious of the apartment buildings that have giant climbing roses flanking the entrances, but console myself with a morning visit each week to give them a smell and admire them in the doorways.

Sadly all of my balcony roses have been eaten by aphids, but I had a few final flowers before the plants called it quits. Saga has been very interested in what grows on the balcony — more interested in chewing the plants rather than smelling their blossoms though!
