Bob - Westbourne Little Lamb's petals are really a light yellow. The true color never shows up in my photos. Also, it was incorrectly registered as a tet. It will only set see with dips. Maryl - I like the the two Westbournes I grow. Little Lamb has never been as tall as registered and has never rebloomed for me. W. Good Old Days is by far the better plant: vigorous, tall, well branched, and reblooms. Julia - Hope your storms don't do any damage. This is supposed to be our driest day all week - only a 20 percent chance of rain. Debra

Kublakan, thank you so much! The gazebo actually came from SAMs club several years ago. Lesley, thank you, you're so kind. I do spend hours in the yard and have been tremendously blessed to have such a wonderful husband who has the talent to build things and help me with the "big" stuff. I'm not really sure how many roses I have. Never enough, that's for sure! Lol. This site help start my obsession I think and continues to enable it :) It's sooooo hard to choose favorites but I LOVE most all of the pinks, cream and apricot colored Austins. I wish I had a secret to share but I only have what all of us do and that's a love for roses. There are some great rose growers on here and I love seeing all the different pictures of everyone's beauties.

Tom, This is the first year that I've had the red porterweed. I plan on taking cuttings so I'll have some next year if it doesn't come back. Thanks!

KUROSHINJU LORISE SUSAN MASSU TIMELESS And this is one of my begonias I got as packaged bulbs at WalMart this spring. Love it... I got two bulbs in the pack. This one and a coral-pink colored single one. The package said they were white with a dark pink picotee edge! Oh well, these are beautiful anyway.... This is the other begonia that bloomed in October... And this is one of the Calibrachoas I got this spring. Blooming like crazy right now!
