Ca’ delle Rose is a simple thing,
with modest content, magic and newly-born.
It’s a land of spontaneous flavour, immediate.
It’s the warm embrace of the fireplace.
It’s the endless vitality of the garden.
It’s courageous hope, rebirth, peace.
It’s the bond of a past love.
It’s the real sign, silently eloquent,
of that accomplishment which I’ve always believed in.
It’s me, with my thoughts and my expectations.
And wherever tomorrow brings me
it will be the expression I want to pass on to the future
according to that perfect invisible principle
ruling the life of the universe. |

Ca' delle Rose changes and evolves season after season
as outcome of a patient and constant work.
Autumn comes with its vermilion berries
and late flowering.
Still some days to go and the creepy winter
will shroud everything in its fog.
A layer of compost and hay will prevent roots from freezing
yet these weather-resistant thick plants won’t need
anything else.
In winter plants are dormant, loose leaves
and meanwhile regenerate.
That is why joy and wonder are even greater
when new leaves and new delicate buds
grow in spring.
In May their flowering is at their most beautiful.
Here the land has developed an inward life that feels,
tastes, swallows and feeds “and I find it again every time
I dig in the soil and listen to the voice of roses.
I plant, trim, water, fertilise, regenerate. I learn."
…The land of this place has been brought back to life
and regenerated and …. will soon thrive with life.
Incense and musk-scented leaves and colours
of the fragrant wild rose petals, of Albas
and Centifolias, of Hybridé remontant and Tea roses,
of Bourbons and Gallicas, of Musks and Rugosas
ornament this garden grown with modesty.
Passion and deep belief are the
main components of the essence
of Ca’ delle Rose.

What's in a name? That which we call a rose
By any other name would smell as sweet. |
