I love to plant summer veggies, but the past few years, the only ones enjoying the veggie garden were the local rabbits, and squirrels, they were heartless wild life, who left nothing for me, so went back to many rose bushes in many colors, and seasonal bedding flowers.
Before the pandemic I would cut flowers and give them to neighbors. Now I cut the beautiful roses,and put them in every room in the house.
The neighbors are so afraid to touch the roses, would just let them die on their door step, now they decorate my home, and it looks so festive, and smells good also.

@funcountess, Shame on your wildlife for not leaving any of your veggies for you to enjoy!
Like you, I have enjoyed sharing my cut flowers with neighbors and friends in the past. However, because gardening is challenging both because of heavy clay and arid high heat, I never gave myself permission to bring them into my own home. Now, because of the pandemic, I started with forsythia and daffodils; now bright yellow sprigs of fragrant dessert broom are sweetening my family room.

@funcountess, You make me happy! The thought of your roses in our home sounds and smells wonderful. What a beautiful gift from your garden to yourself.
