This pretty pink bloom is of a Tiffany Rose. I’ve grown this rose for about four years in my garden and this past summer it did better than it ever did growing taller than it had in the past and produced more blooms. I believe I’d moved it slightly the year before and I think it likes it’s sunnier position a bit better.
Some say this rose has a beautiful scent, but I don’t find that it has much scent at all. Still it’s a beauty and I’m happy to have it take some space in my garden.
Malva sylvestris ‘Zebrina’ aka Striped Mallow
A relation to the hollyhock family this short lived perennial happily reseeds itself each year so I never had to worry that if the winters harsh the former plant won’t grow the following season as I know it’s seedlings will. Plenty of them.
I grow this gorgeous plant at the foot of my very large and very much tree like William Baffin Rose. It makes a nice cover for the large roses bare knees and helps shade the roots of the large rose and the clematis growing behind it on the fence.
This is a beautiful antique rose with a scent that I’m certain has been incorporated into several perfumes over the last century or two. It has a beautiful damask scent that wafts through the garden in the early and late morning hours.
I’m growing a clematis beside one of my roses. In fact it’s near that lovely black hollyhock that I showed you a few days ago.
In September I noticed the vine had produced these luscious looking red berries. I never knew that clematis vines produced berries, but I’ve now noticed that a few of my other clematis vines seem to have berries on them as well. Who knew?
