Roses For Sale !

I caught another great sale this weekend at Lowes. Most of their rose were on a clearance sale of $1 apiece! I added them to my bed in this order - far right 2 - "Miss All-American Beauty" next 1 - "promise" Next 2 "gypsy" (a coral colored rose)

Carolina Jasmine

Here is my Carolina Jasmine growing on my back fence. It looks quite shabby this years because last year I thought it would be just a FABULOUS idea to use the jasmine itself as a trellis for Ryan's morning glory. Although it did make a great trellis, the morning glory was so vigorous it shaded the jasmine to the point of the dying back of some of the vine. Won't do that again!
