The wet and long spring resulted in an explosion of roses everywhere. Sofia is a bit jungle-like, most green areas do not have central maintenance or it is minimal, part of the anti-tick controls. What we end up having is grass, usually green but sometimes yellow, and some shrubs, except where a local takes care of an area and it looks nice and maintained. But this year the roses shine well beyond anything I remember seeing.

It’s beautiful season here.



Roses are my favorite flower! I love the pink ones.
