The Barlow Road is a part of the Oregon Trail, being established in 1845, making its way around the south side of Mount Hood. This road provided an alternative to the dangerous and expensive route that used rafts to transport wagons down the Columbia River.
You may drink rose petal tea to help a variety of other illnesses. Some people claim to get relief from tension, ulcers, heart conditions, infection, diarrhea, indigestion and circulation problems. If your condition persists, talk to a medical professional.
Sprinkle new or used tea leaves (loose or in tea bags) around your rosebushes and cover with mulch to give them a midsummer boost. When you water the plants, the nutrients from the tea will be released into the soil, spurring growth. Roses love the tannic acid that occurs naturally in tea.
