Double Delight Rose, Zinnias And Daylilies


I liked the white zinnias some much in my garden
last year, I planted them again. I received a Double
Delight rose for Mother's Day and planted it in the middle of
the zinnias. The rose White Lightin', I'm sad to report,
has died. 

Double Delight rose has a very strong wonderful
scent and the color of it changes daily

Found The White Iris

I brought this iris from my old house. It
didn't bloom last year, so I am
very glad to see it again.
This is a very majestic white iris, measuring in
at 42" tall. I don't
know the name of it, but it performs
well in the garden - it multiplies fast and the
flower lasts a long time.


Garden area started by the rocks
 that used to have Pampas grass growing around them.
It is coming along nicely.



I added these iris to the "rose bed island".
The bud is Rustic Royalty iris, then Spin-off iris, and the purple
one is an unknown. I think it might be an
heirloom iris,

I just love the flower balls on the red onion.
Queen Elizabeth rose is in the
background. It is now about 6 ft tall.


Portmeirion David Austin English
rose. This has a sweet mild
fragrance.


Row of 7 Pink Knockouts.

I am adding stones to the border of the
Pink Knockouts.

A Walk In The Garden

Portmeirion David Austin rose. I just can't
seem to get a good shot of this rose. I will
keep trying.

leaves before photographing)

White zinnia planted in a zinnia bed of
