Sarah Van Fleet Rose also blooms all summer. Here she is just starting her season with Sweet Cicely and Angelica behind her. |
Here is Sarah Van Fleet Rose just opening. Our best shot of this rose is with her definition. |
Lady Penzance Rose is an unforgetable presence. |
Rosa Mundi is another absolutely generous friend. |
June is simply a bower of roses. |
Out behind the perennial beds, Kathy weeds a few volunteer Rugosa Roses. |
In another bed we set out the greenhouse babies. |
This is what develops. |
This is a combination of Bee Balm, annual Pompom Poppies, Nicotiana Sylvestris, Cleome and Hollyhocks. |

Looking down this bed in the opposite direction. |
We grew a lot of Snapdragons again this year. Here the Angels had us set the Pink Snapdragons next to deep Red Nicotianas. |
Here is another shot of this combination of Flowers. |
Cosmos and Whirlygig Zinnias are also part of the mix. |
The color is not very good in this slide but in real life the combination of Lauriana Rose, Pale Blue Deiphiniums and Yellow Helianthus is wonderful. |
