A Couple o' Bucks

10 years ago

Prairie Star and Quietness are lovely this June! These are phone photos. I am currently camera-less - I miss taking good, sharp photos!

Prairie Star cluster - like a bride's bouquet:

Quietness:

Below are our two PS in their bed along with Teasing Georgia at the back and Jude the Obscure to the left. Also included are some noid minis.

The big red roses in front of PS and to the right of JtO are noid minis from Trader Joes years ago. The roses are beautifully formed on long stems. I think they make lovely accents - I have them all over the garden as they came 3 or 4 rooted stems to a pot - they are especially vigorous growers! They are larger bushes than I expected but I have grown to adore them.

Agree with all of the above. Your last pic of the bed just makes me want to follow the path and explore. Looking forward to more!

I knew from picture here that 'Quietness' rivaled all pastel pinks in beauty. Didn't know about 'Prairie Star'. Love seeing the hot pink (on my monitor) roses in the bed shot. Do you have any close-ups of their blooms?

I'll see what I can do. It's a hard-to-capture color. : )

Irisgal, here are a few photos of the Trader Joe's red mini blooms a little closer. They begin burgundy red and 'pinken' as they open and age.

(The bee is a bonus that you may have for free ; - ) )
