BEAUTIFUL flowers and I love cactus! They´re protection plants! :-)
Bello bello! And the roses! You know my beloved dad in my town was known as the "rose thief". He said always: "In Sutri I have the right to take roses from others gardens. So he had always in his car scissors, and at home we had always marvellous flowers. My fellow citizens are so patient.
Love that last photo. Each young plant with a tag containing the ganze megillah.
Oooooh! Lovely! And ooouch for the last, though in your part of the country the cactii must make nice, natural gardens.
Don't you love rose names? It's like they're race horses.
And I'll just bet our favorite docent will be right there to help you make your selections! :)

Italo, I can't believe your dad did that, but you've given me an idea......
Two more pieces of advice about the sale: arrive 2 hours before the doors open as it's very popular, and make sure there's lots of money in your bank account as you won't be able to resist all those great plants.
Two hours, Bellis? Wow. For this one you want to be a member. They are well-supplied, though, I promise you. Bellis and I got a behind-the-scenes tour on Tuesday and saw what seemed like miles of plants, ready to go.
Cacti grow beautifully here. Because water isn't plentiful, many people have what's called a xeriscape instead of a yard. I want that for us, too. Beautiful.
Italo, your stories of Sutri could make a book.
Dina, you know what the Google translate English is for that, don't you? -- Ganze megillah.
I'd love such a xeriscape too!!! :-)
Great fun!
Bellis, what do people do for two hours? Wait in line? Visit?
Haha. I guess Google translate thinks these Yiddish expressions are used often enough in America that they don't need explanation.
I used to have a "Dictionary Schmicktionary" but it's long gone. Now I have the web!
Those names are like race horses. I had no idea, even though I might have an Easy Does It bush in my backyard. I hope I don't kill it; I'm terrible with plants. I think there's a xeriscape in my future.
Well darn!!! I miss my roses!!!
What happened to all the comments?
WV: pidness. Well, I guess it's none of my pidness where the comments went.
It IS your pidness, Speedway.
Maybe we should all be grateful Blogger didn't lose all our posts, but I would like to have those comments back. People shared useful information about the sale.
Uh, I think the gist of the responses was "get there two hours early, bring a wagon and money to cover more than you initially expect to buy."
Thank you, I think that was the gist. Plus a lot of people telling me what a brilliant photographer I am, and how attractive I am. And skinny.
