My very favorite rose.  

Rugosa rose has the sweetest scent ever.  Great to use in potpourri . 

Dries to a beautiful shade of dark pink color.

Stargazer Lily and one of my favorites. 

Beautiful pink Lily and the scent is amazing. 

Hydrangeas are just about ready to pick. 

Wave petunias and I love them. 

Very unusual trunk on this tree in our backyard. 

Looks like Jerry is down for a nap. 

At least when he is sleeping he does not mind me taking a picture. 

Boogies is ready for our walk in the garden.  He follows me as I take pictures. 

These lilies have the sweetest scent ever. They are so pretty and such a soft pink color. 

They will not last long with the heat and dry weather we are having. 

They look nice together. 

This is one of my favorite Dayllies. 

Brilliant color and the throat is so dark.

Serene Angel in the Secret Garden 

Serene Angel has been blooming for a very long time--unusual. 

Secret Garden in the morning and I love the sun casting all the beautiful shadows.

The beautiful Hostas are Fragrant Bouquet. 

Wonder who lives here?

Boogie always has his eye on me. 

Leaving Secret Garden and there sets Boogie watching me! 

Beautiful Lavender

Pink Knockout rose and pink Smooth Touch rose.  This rose has no thorns and I am looking forward to seeing how it grows. 

New Lily I just got.  Such a beautiful one. 

Love the way the lily changes to a lighter color after a few days. 

Shasda Daisy 

So many blooms this year.  Endless Summer hydrangea 

Endless Summer hydrangea looks like the color is going to be lavender this year.  We will have to wait to see. 

Lavender is looking really good this year.

Zephirine Drouhin is a 12 to 15 foot climber with large, double,fragrant dark-pink to cerise flowers.  It's famed for being thornless.  It is one of the more cold hardy climbing roses.  Here in zone 5 I mulch heavy around the crown.  

The fragrance of the Zephirine Drouhin is amazing.  

Boogie was ready for our walk in the garden this morning.  Pictures from our walk can be found on facebook under Country Flower Bin. 

Now Jerry on the other hand wanted no part of our morning walk. 

New Dawn Rose

Starting to really show a number of blooms today.  New Dawn rose. 

This Clematis is making good use of this trellis this year.  I find that this plant loves alot of water.  Make sure to give it plenty of mulch also and you will be pleased with the results.

Lily 2011 

This yellow Asiatic Lily was a bright yellow and looked great with the lavender and light orange Lily.   2011
