It was pretty chilly today, and I felt like sleeping in this morning, so I missed the best lighting for taking pics. Our weather is so weird lately. My husband says we're more like Washington state now. Cool weather and overcast. I even thought it might rain. This is the strangest spring and summer I've seen since I moved here back in '75. We should be having 90 to 100° temps constantly by now. 50's and 60's is just plain bizarre!! The roses like it tho! But the diseases are still hangin' around a bit.

CENTENNIAL STAR - new one for me this season

COLORIFIC - happy to get in the ground this yr

CRESCENDO

JANET

NEPTUNE

RAINBOW SORBET - this one has been phenomenal since it got moved into its new spot

SEBASTIAN KNIEPP - and talk about loving its new spot!!! OMG this guy was a whimpy little do-nothing plant the last several yrs up along the fence. He's showing his gratefulness for being moved by growing like a dang weed and popping out clusters of blooms!

SHERLOCK HOLMES - another happy transplant...
