My Rose (Rosa 'Gebrueder Grimm') is going into it's second flush. Love this rose! Lovey dubby
Thumb of 2013-07-25/Calif_Sue/f6b141

I have my South Africa still in it's 5 gal. pot which I planted bare root last Nov. It has now rooted into the ground. I now have a spot picked out for it and will plant it soon. The foliage is a healthy light green and the blooms just glow! Nothing like it in my garden, a lovely yellow tangerine shade, reminds me of an orangesicle.


Jeri Jennings is also flushing again after an awful first flush with rose weevil damaged blooms.


Distant Drums colors are so distinct! Seeing it's blooms is bittersweet for me. It always reminds me of my best friend I lost to C, as it was her favorite rose. I couldn't even buy it for a couple of years, too emotional for me but now it makes me smile.


Adobe Sunrise is happily reblooming with Lavender 'Dilly Dilly'.
