All My Thyme


A few weeks back I had a free evening and jetted over to my friend Dawn's farm, All My Thyme, to capture just a smidgen of the magic that makes up her world.




Dawn specializes in growing garden roses. The romantic, fragrant, heart achingly beautiful kind that you see on the cover of all the wedding magazines these days.





Some years back she followed her heart and cunning intuition and planted hundreds and hundreds of these roses which are now in full rolling bloom.


I LOVE going to Dawn's because everywhere you turn, the beauty just bowls you over! Her farm and roses are truly a labor of love!





If you're in the greater Seattle area you can find Dawn's incredible roses at Northwest Wholesale Florists.

    Oh wow, I've been trying to find the bravery to follow my heart and do the same here in Australia, being scared and worrying that the market here is not ready for the diversity of garden grown has held me back...I can feel the bravery edging ever closer and this has helped! Thanks

    I wish I could just go out and pick whole bunches of roses like that. Must be the best, like living a dream.
    Bye,

    Stopping in from Georgianna's blog. You have a beautiful blog and roses are my favourite flower, but I have a hard time growing them in my sandy garden. I will be coming to your site for my rose fix.
