What is the flower intermingled and behind the front right blue hydrangea? Also, is the light purple a salvia, russian sage, lavender?

    I would guess from the photo you are seeing Echinacea (coneflower) before it is flowering.

    Nepeta and white roses. Thank you so much. It's beautiful.

    If you are looking for a low maintenance white rose, try White Out (its from the knockout series) or the Icy Drift.

    The white flower looks to be Phlox Paniculata David rather than white roses.

    There is white phlox elsewhere in the garden, however in this particular area it is the single white roses that are flowering, the photo is taken in early June several weeks before the phlox would have begun to bloom.

    This is absolutely lovely! So nicely done. What I love about it is the juxtaposition of the Hydrangeas (is that Endless Summer?) with the more meadow-y flowers. The white (H arborescens?) in the background shows up the blues nicely, which otherwise might recede too much. Inspiring -- thanks for sharing with us all.
