    Lovely roses! Sweet Kate spiderwort is my favorite spiderwort, looks good with so many plants.

    The roses are gorgeous, and I really like the Silver Scrolls heuchera with the Sweet Kate spiderwort! I also like the shape of your new daylily bed. It will be really nice when it fills in! In the meantime you have those pretty daisies to pump some color into it.

    Thanks everyone! I have a red spiderwort in the back yard too ) They look great for a while than they need good cut back. I thought they looked really good next to the heuchura too! across from that not in the pic is wine and roses weigelia mixed in with variegated lirotope. I wanted yellows mixed in with darks :)

    I realy want purple splash Jean! That one in the pic looks like 4th of july, but its not. has more egg shell white in it and doesnt smell as good. Both bloom all summer here though!

    On the daylily bed....Truth is my wife flipped out after she saw that, "you put it in the middle of the yard! lol" I simply said, just wait dear...and filled in with her favorite, the daiseys :)

    I forgot to post this pic..It is a big rose that has been here since we moved in 8 years ago..looked horrible past few years, and I cut it back to a foot off the ground last spring. This year is WOW! and its in mostly shade too!

    Thanks for the complements everyone!
