Roses hedges

Today the walk up from New Eltham station to the Chantry is sunny, the suburban gardens bright with well-pruned roses and bedding plants laid out by ruler. Somehow the drone of a lawn-mower is as peaceful as the hum of bees in a meadow. When I reach the Chantry, the trees, which in my memory are hedges no higher than my head, hold the house and workshop in thick shadow. And when Uncle Gareth leads me into the house itself, the shadows are thicker still. 

The welcome mat Providing food as well as shelter will entioe wildlife in and persuade them to stay. This lovely informal hedging combination inoludes bright-hipped wild roses and the fluffy seedheads of Clematis vitalba. More plants offering both living room and pantry are featured opposite. 

An old-fashioned shrub rose of the galliea type, unusual in having no thorns. Very good grown as a hedge. 

The laboratory was cold and dark. It never used to be, but now it was. I went to the window and flung back the shutters one after another until the room was revealed in all its complicated vastness. Then I sank down on the window seat. Everything was wrong. The laboratory had been the hub of my universe, its wheels turned by fire and water, the instruction of our notebooks, the recording of our processes. I had indexed and labeled its contents myself because my father, fanatical about order and economy, depended on being able to put his hand on a book, a substance, a crucible the instant he needed it. And every instrument had to be maintained to a perfect level of utility scales balanced, chisels polished, irons scrubbed clear of rust, chemicals redated and replenished. Even while the hedges on our land were broken and our roses mildewed, our laboratory had remained airy, well oiled, constant. But now the room was furred by a kind of violent neglect.

Hawthorn is a spiny, small tree or bush with white flowers and red berries (haws), each containing one to three nuts, depending on the species (1). Hybridization is common among individual species, making them difficult to identify (2). Hawthorn is a member of the rose family and is found in Europe, North Africa, and western Asia (3). It can reach heights of 25-30 ft and is used as a hedge (1,4). The flowers grow in clusters and bloom from April to June, and the deciduous leaves are divided into three, four, or five lobes (1). The use of hawthorn can be dated back to Dioscorides in the first century ce (5). 

Hedges Hedges, especially hawthorn, guelder rose, hazel, and beech, create shelter and homes for a wide number of creatures. Hedges also create essential corridors for wildlife to move from one area to another in safety. 

I wonder why you saw the demon as red " the bishop was asking as the two of them walked the old-fashioned grounds of the cathedral with its century-old yew hedges, rose beds, and stone-lined ponds. "It does seem somewhat classical. One can hardly credit that Dante did actually get shown around Hell."... 

Because human evaluations are nearly always hedged about with qualifications, there is usually some uncertainty in where the boundaries of a given odor class should be drawn. Thus, for example, six professional perfumers when asked to rate the degree of "green" and "rose" character in the compound "rose oxide" or 2-(2-methyl-l-propenyl)-4-methyl-tetrahydropyran, gave the following evaluations. 

The rose cultivated in this district is Bosa damascena, a red rose, but the hedges of the plantations are often made up of Bosa alba. The latter are often distill with the red roses, but as the resulting oil contains more stearoptene than that of the Bosa damascena, it is rarely distilled alone. 

Much of this activity took place out of public view in the closed and largely unregulated world of hedge funds and investment banks. The investment banks were subject to modest debt-to-equity requirements that SEC promulgated to protect shareholders from fraud. At the urging of the big five investment banks, however, SEC in April 2004 relaxed the requirements to allow investment banks to use their models to set their own minimum capital reserves. As the banks poured more and more resources into mortgage-backed securities, leverage rose dramatically from debt-to-equity ratios of 12 1 to ratios of 30-40 1. With capital reserves at historic lows, the investment banks were in no position to survive the crisis of confidence that hit the industry in the late summer of 2008. ...
