| I love the CP in all it's glorious colors. Your sedum is interesting, too. |
|
| Chicago Peace undergoes so many subtle color changes and they are all beautiful. You have captured well her many color-moods! All the pics are lovely, but Chicago Peace is the star. Kate |

| Thanks guys......I agree that CP makes picture taking easy ;-) I have tried so many options to circle my front fountain. This year I am experimenting with alternating those two sedums. If I like them there once they bloom, I'm going to add maybe Sweet Williams next year. This is a pic of what it kind of looks like........

| Wow!!! Those sedums look great there. Who knew? I would never have tried them. Your Chicago Peace pics are truly stunning!!! Of course, so is Abe, LDB and Ginger!!! But that Chicago Peace !!! Gah!!!! Drool!!!! Love the bouquets as always!! |
|
| Boxofrox, These pics are truly the chocolates of the eye-candy. This is all so beautifull. I really like the blue hydrangea next to the white/green variegated foliage. |
|
| I love your photos! My Chicago Peace is generally darker-colored here in the High Desert of Northern Arizona. I have a challenging climate for roses; still I enjoy growing lots. More of my Chicago Peace photos are in the linked article. |
