Late August Bloomers

14 years ago

I am not a rose expert, but this rose has done great all year. It is Buff Beauty and it has had a few clusters almost all spring and summer. I love the color and the fragrance is very strong. This is planted at the end of the porch and I could smell it sitting in the porch swing yesterday.

and then there is Grape Magic daylily. This is a very long blooming one for me. I see a few more buds to go too,

I have three little plants near this mother plant that I raised from seeds last year. I see lots more pods too. I can't resist saving and planting these seeds. You have quite a long wait to see what you get. I often forget about them until I see a new bloom.
