Knock-Out Roses and Lavender

 My Knock-Out Roses are doing great again this year.

 The hot pink and a blush pink are so beautiful.

 surrounded by the Lavender makes for a wonderful little garden.

 With the Lilacs now gone and the Peonies almost gone, the Roses bring joy to the garden.

 Was happy when the rains stopped to give the blooms some time to grow.

My hubby and I are  new at growing roses, and we sure are learning more each season.

We hope to have a good season for 2014...can't wait!

Take time to smell the Roses,

Clementine Columbine

We found this Columbine at a local hardware store.

 We bought 3 plants and hope we can take the seeds to plant more.

 It has captured our hearts.

Herbaceous Peony

What flower, other than the Rose could be as sweet smelling

as the Peony?
