Companion planting in a rose garden can enhance the beauty of the garden, extend the bloom time, and even help to discourage pest problems. Using herbs in the rose garden can accomplish all of these goals, as well as to expand on all of the delightful fragrances in your garden, provide flowers and foliage to attract beneficial insects, cover the soil to lower soil temperature and act as a living mulch to reduce weeds. And if you garden organically, all of your companion growing herbs can be used for culinary and medicinal purposes. We will discuss the value of some of our more commonly known herbs for the rose garden, as well as introduce more unusual herbs that will complement and increase the beauty year round in your rose garden.
Morningsun Herb Farm is a family-owned 2 acre nursery and display gardens that have been in operation since 1995. Owned by Rose Loveall-Sale and her husband Dan Sale, Morningsun has grown from the ground up in the beautiful west valleys of Vacaville in Solano County. Rose has a background in Forestry and Horticulture, and has been propagating and growing herbs for more than 30 years. Morningsun Herb Farm grows over 500 species of herbs, vegetables, unusual and drought-tolerant perennials and pollinator plants. They specialize in a huge selection of lavenders and Salvia propagating over 90 varieties in their greenhouses. The display gardens, located in the original family walnut orchard, are wonderful teaching tools for gardeners, chefs, herbalists, and crafters. Bring a picnic to relax in the gardens, and some extra treats to share with the donkeys and Goose the goat.
Hello Pruning Enthusiasts!
The Annual Pruning of the Emerald Glen Rose Garden is Complete!
Many, Many Thanks to:
Lou Evans
Kathy Knabke
Heather Marcy
Andy Miller
Sheryl Reed
Elizebeth Wiener
...for their hours of work today completing rose pruning at Emerald Glen Park in Dublin. All attendees today were repeat 2024 pruners. Thanks to you all.
The garden now has that spare, clean and poetic look that graces a newly pruned rose garden. With all the rain anticipated for the next few days, the spring bloom should be spectacular. But the park today looks magical.
With gratitude,
