Clematis Jackmanii flower and vine
This is my first experience with growing Clematis vines and I’m loving it. Clematis Jackmanii is just beautiful and it grows so easily. The vine is huge! It grows behind one of my roses so I train it along the fence behind the rose. It blooms at least twice a year. I love it.
This rose is called Octavia Hill. I managed to take this picture shortly after it had rained and if you look closely you can see dew drops on the rose petals … especially the lower roses and the center of the larger one.
Gorgeous pink blooms on a lovely climbing rose bush.
I’m quite happy with my Parade rose. It’s quite hardy and it blooms on and off throughout the summer. It doesn’t have much scent, but when you take in all the pluses it can be forgiven for not being strong in rose scent.
Breath of Life rose – This is the rose that inspired the name of this photoblog. I think it’s one of my favorite rose and I’ve given it a special place in the garden – right at the entrance … symbolic really as I think of my garden as a Breath of Life.
