Lemon Tree Very Pretty.

We planted our Lemon Tree this spring.

It has grown leaps and bounds.   And has flowers.

I love lemons!

First Roses Picked!

So far, I have enjoyed my Rose Glory on the bushes in my garden.

But  now it's time to bring them indoors too.

Petunia - I just love this flower!

The flowers are so cheerful and bright.

I know I have showed you my petunias before.

But I didn't show you my petunias Today!

And everyday in the garden is a brand new show!!

TA DAA!!  Todays show brought to you by 

Petunia!!

Hope you enjoyed it.

Old Blush or Old Faithful!!

Old Blush is the most wonderful friend a Rose Lover could ever have!

The scent is wonderful too.

Old Blush Rose just starting to open.

Old Blush Rose in it's prime!

Old Blush Rose is still pretty after the best of the bloom is gone.

This rose is amazing in mass.  And each flower is beautiful all by itself, too!

And the bush hasn't reached it's peak yet!!

Peggy Martin Rose

This is a beautiful climbing Rose

It blooms in clusters and reminds me of Seven Sisters but..

It is not thorny!

I planted this last year and it is very happy where it lives here at my house. And it's blooming prettily.

I had seen this (kind of ) Rose blooming for the last 10 years hanging over a fence behind my shop and it  trailed all over the fence and trees and bloomed several times during the summer.  So I found the street it lived on and went door to door until I found the owner.  I did get some funny looks, I don't mind telling you!  I didn't care.

It is a dark/light pink if that makes sense.

I did find the owner but she was a very elderly lady who had no idea what "her gardener" planted all those years ago.  And she allowed me to see her garden.  The roses were even more spectacular on her side of the fence even though it was somewhat shady.

And it has tons of buds!

Well, the end of the story is... I saw an article about a Rose that lived through our hurricane Katrina

and they named it after the lady whose home it was growing at. So it is called the  Peggy Martin Rose.  I guess it has been an old rose growing in this area for many, many years but because of Katrina has become available through growers.

And I am happy!

Is This Climbing Pinkie??

Do you think this is Climbing Pinkie??

I didn't write down what I planted and can not remember for the life of me what this rose is!  I was looking for a "mannerly climber" that blooms most of the time.  So I know that much about it.

I planted two last spring.  One on either side of the trellis.

Last year it grew some but this year it has taken off and has lots of buds.  It's pretty.  And the flowers are a deep enough pink that I can see them from my kitchen window. 

 You can't see them all here but if I were a better photographer and used the right filter you would be able to see them.

Help me "Name This Rose" if you can!!

Sweet Peas In My Front Garden

My Sweet Peas in the morning.

This year I planted Sweet Peas in my Front as well as my Back garden.  I love them so much, I want to plant them every where.

I love that there are different colors planted together.  And it's a surprise to see what color they will be.  This is a marvelous blush color.

The smell is amazing!
