This is the Valencia Hybrid Tea rose. It’s a large rose, perhaps 4 inches in diameter and it’s lovely.
I don’t find that this rose has much scent, but what it lacks in fragrance it more than makes up for in beauty. I just wish this rose wasn’t so stingy with it’s blooms. I get new flowers every three or four weeks throughout the summer but only one to three at a time. I’d love to see this rose bush just full of these lovely flowers.
I love my Moulinex roses. Look at how many different shades of yellow are in the bloom. Doesn’t it look a bit like the colors of a sunrise?
This beautiful peony is called Karl Rosenfield. Normally this peony is quite a deep red, but as the bloom ages it takes on a deep rose hue and the petals spread out and open the flower up.
It’s quite lovely and it’s quite large! This peony is approximately five to six inches in diameter. Now imagine a clump of them with 30 to 50 blooms! Spectacular!
Happy Canada Day!
The Astilbe is in full bloom and I managed to capture this hot pink Astilbe while it was still covered in morning dew.
The spring flowers are just about done blooming, but my roses are just about to start. I love my ever changing garden.
