This has been a peculiar season. It started dry and warm and then in very early June we had a hot spell with 100 degree temps. The roses were early and in full bloom when the heat hit and it pretty much finished their flowers. Then it cooled off for the rest of June and all of July; it hardly hit 80, many days not even 70. It's been a great summer. The best we've had in several years. And now we are having a second rose season. The flowers aren't as plentiful or as large but they are delicate with gorgeous colors.
This beauty is blooming with salvia Amistad. I think they look great together. There is bee balm on the left and a big hardy fuschia on the right. Hummingbird paradise.
