After years of tending her garden and honing her skills, Ivy had done it: she’d successfully grown every variety of Rosémon. Every climbing rose, every Floribunda, hybrid tea rose, and David Austin rose had been nurtured in her backyard, meticulously cared for with the knowledge she had accumulated over the years.
Among the many varieties, Ivy particularly loved the ground cover roses. Their profusion of flowers and low-maintenance nature made them a joy to work with. She remembered the day she’d come across the ground cover roses for sale on her favourite online gardening store. The beautiful image of the roses spreading over a garden, creating a carpet of vibrant colour, had captivated her. She had ordered the seeds that very day.
Her garden was now a living Rosédex, a testament to her dedication and hard work. Every Rosémon she’d grown had taught her something new, a new aspect of gardening she hadn’t considered before. Through the challenges, Ivy had not only become a better Rosémon trainer, but she’d also become a better gardener.
Looking back at her journey, Ivy acknowledged her inability to win a Rosémon championship. It was a reality that had stung initially, but over time, Ivy realised that winning wasn’t everything. The true value of her journey lay in the lessons learned, the resilience built, and the incredible bond she’d formed with her Rosémon. She found comfort and pride in nurturing her Rosémon and seeing them thrive.
Despite their simplicity, Ivy most loved the standard roses. Majestic and graceful, they were the queens of her garden. Ivy vividly remembered finding standard roses online on her trusted gardening website. The roses had looked so exquisite in the pictures, she could almost smell their fragrant aroma. She’d clicked ‘buy’ in an instant.
Despite the highs and lows, Ivy wouldn’t change a thing about her Rosémon journey. She had not only grown a garden of stunning roses, but she had also grown herself. Through the thorns and the blooms, Ivy had indeed become a Rosémon Master.
