Meow, everyone!
Actually I can never decide whether my favourite is roses or violas - so I
have both in my garden!
I love to smell the roses, and I love all the different colours they come
in - I have one, called "Little White Pet", which is a really pale cream
with pink edging to the petals. I love orange roses too - it's amazing how
many different shades of orange you can get!
Also the humans can use the roses to make perfume and rosewater - and they
can eat them!! They can make rosepetal wine, for instance - or icecream -
and my human has a recipe for rose petal bread that she is just longing to
try. (But I think i will let her eat it on her own, I prefer chopped liver!)
Violas - because they are so pretty and delicate, and the colours are so
lovely - the best are those that have alternating yellow and purple petals,
and there are also lovely black ones! Visit my human's gardening page to
see some pictures -
