Hello Kerstin,
Your garden is beautiful as always.
Your Lewisia has taller flower stalks than in my experience.
The Morden Sunrise rose is very healthy and attractive. That rose seems either to do very well, or very poorly. Mine have been flowering all summer.

Thank you for the tour Kerstin, your garden is lovely. I think I am learing to read Swedish - I figured out what your "poolen" is :-)

What is the blue flower with spiky petals? It is very interesting. When do you get your first frost in Sweden?

Kerstin...Your garden is very nice!!! WOW! Your roses are beautiful!

Hi Kerstin
Lovely pictures of your garden. All your plants look excellent. I, like you, really like the Morden and Explorer roses. I also have the 'Rosa Mundi' rose.

I also enjoyed looking at the background of your pictures as well, because this gives me a bit of an idea of what Sweden looks like, as my father was born in Sweden.

Cheers Al

Your gardens are fabulous! I really like your style of borders and use of rock. The rooster sculpture in the first picture is adorable too. Thanks for posting your pictures.

Kirsten, your pictures are most welcome! I love your gardens and look forward to your pictures. Most of my gardens didn't do much this year, bad weather and first year planted perennials. The roses were fabulous though. They were the nicest roses I have ever grown. Have you tried the "Hope for Humanity" rose yet? It has been blooming almost constantly with deep dark velvety scarlet blooms. They have such a rich velvety texture to them that I have to keep moving in closer to admire them.

Thank you all :)

Thanks Kirsten for the lovely picture. You must have taken it around the time of your mid-summer celebrations. At that time of year we are almost dark at midnight.

Cheers Al

Hi, Kerstin. I was thinking of you just the other week, and hoping that you would post again. It's always nice to see your garden in Sweden. What a lovely place. Thank you for letting me "visit"!

Happy gardening.
