Boxo - Yes, in that picture there is a resemblance, but there really isn't. :)
Beth - Yes - but it isn't Rock 'N' Roll - it's Rock & Roll. There is a difference. And I love that rose too. It's in my top 5 favorite roses.

I just love that planter too. It' just darling.
Thanks you two!
Carol

Sarah Ann - We're kindred spirits - I think that Shasta daisies and phlox look fantastic and bloom for a long while. Something else I really like is Peach Faced Bellflower.

Thanks Brittie!!

PrettyPetals - Yes - isn't QOS fantastic. She just lights up the yard. Thanks for the camera praise - but thank goodness for modern cameras - with my neurological problem I start to fall over every time I take a picture. It's quite funny. MANY of my photos look blurry. But I don't worry about that. Any really nice picture is most likely a fortuitous accident. LOL

Thanks Kate!
Carol :)

Beautiful roses and I love your Shasta daisies too. I have a some in a garden and I have to thin them out every so often to keep them from taking over. Love the water planter too, it's too cute

boncrow66 - Thanks for the kind words. I just LOVE that planter. I'll have to thin out my Shastas - maybe next year.

Thanks Jim - I won a lot of rose ribbons with my roses - 16 ribbons with 6 firsts and the rest seconds. My first year at a rose show. :)

Kate. I really liked your faucet planter and looked for something similar on ebay. It really adds interest to your beautiful garden.

Thanks vivekpatel - I'm a little disappointed with it this year - because it has no fragrance - whereas last year the fragrance was intense. Go figure. But it's still an awesome rose.

Congrats on your rose show wins! Impressive.

Love that bloom on Alec's Red. Your Sweet Rocket (Hesperis) is a wonderful color. Beautiful display.

Iris_gal - yes Sweet Rocket is an amazing plant. It first bloomed in early spring and is STILL blooming. And yes -I agree, the coloring on Alec's Red is quite nice. Thanks for your kind words. :)

Thanks vivekpatel - here's hoping for fragrance.

Thanks Seil - The lobelia still looks fantastic in the planter. Lobelia is great.

Carol
