I cannot grow roses because of deer. They love them.
I have a friend which has a large Rose garden and I always liked her little "Rose Paprika". I think it would go well with lavender.
My favorite rose is "Just Joey"..... apricot-orange color, but it is a Hybrid Tea , so taller.Very popular here....originated in England.

Yup, that’s one for the bin. It’s a ground cover rose, but where it is growing is far too dry for it and hence it (all six of it) are struggling. I need something about 2feet high, in an orange/ peach hue to compliment the lavender. It has to be able to cope with dry conditions though. Any suggestions?

So many nice roses Karen.
I would definitely not get rid off the "13" one....the red with traditional rose shape.

It looks beautiful.
I have never tried to eat passion flower's fruit. Mine never really developed.
Good deal for yours Thorneyside.

I think maybe the taller plants have swamped them!

Ok Shirley. I am persevering but am trying Garden Friends site. x

David, PM's received and, hopefully, replied to.

"I am not going to delete my account on here in case things improve ... fingers crossed!"

I was going to PM you, Shirley, when I saw that my PMs to you in the last few days all came up with "Account Deleted"! So I'm glad you haven't deleted your account1

Is this a picture of a hollowed out tress stump covered in Ivy?

Thanks Rose ... I am so fed up with GoY at the moment ... it is taking far too long to access photos and/or make comments ... the Bad Gateway message comes up every day so I'm outta here for a while.

:o(((

Thank you Thorneyside.

Thanks Shirley.

They are still in the vase, but outside now. Tbh they were making us both sneeze.

Rose, this one isn't actually in my garden as it's in a planting scheme nearby.

I wonder why your Penstemons haven't thrived as they're not favoured by slugs or other critters usually.

That's a shame Karen.

I grew a few penstamon for my perennial garden, but they are nowhere to be seen! Yours is very pretty.

Beautiful!

That's a lovely arrangement ... does Scott suffer with Hay fever perhaps?

That sounds a lovely idea ... good luck with it!

Then you must keep it for the Bees this year!

Thanks K, this one has been left in the ground for about 3 years and keeps on returning.

There are also six newly planted ones, nowhere near flowering yet, so we shall both have to wait!

Klahanie, I'm not really a fan of red Roses but this one may make me change my mind!

Thanks Thorneyside, it was more by accident than design ... :o))

Goes well with 'hot lips' Shirley Tulip.

I hope you feel better soon Klahanie, thinking of you.

Lovely.
I planted several Gladiolus but they are not blooming yet.

That is a pretty one Shirley.

I was wondering where you were Klahanie..Will pm you...hope you recieve it...

Nice vivid colour Julia. I am home from hospital (hip replacement surgery ) still not really mobile but can enjoy pictures of GOY friends.

LOL! Julia! :D

It’s a weird mix of colours Shirley. Tbh…It’s not my favourite.

Josie, I understand your frustration with Growsonyou as it has taken me so very long to log in today.

First attempt gave me the 'Bad Gateway - time out' message, second attempt gave me a completely different aspect to the site, everything was on the left side of my screen.

Finally, third time lucky, I'm logged in, but this is not acceptable so I have joined another gardening forum which I shall PM you about.

I am not going to delete my account on here in case things improve ... fingers crossed!

Shirley, I am giving up on this site as I cannot participate with any photos, always Oops, seems we’ve made a mistake. I’ve sent some photos to myself & they’ve gone on my Icloud mail but how to get them from there to GoY I’ve no idea. I’ve tried contacting GoY about the problem & that link didn’t work either.

It is, I love most of the 'hot' colours now I keep trying to make a border of them 😀

I'm picturing you doing that Balcs!!
You are right it is a faint scent.I particularly like the formation of the flower heads.

I would dearly love to see that sight! :)

Here in the spring we get a great many flowering trees, some in our streets others in less looked after zones. In this town, especially where we live, there are thousands of May (Hawthorn) trees as well as Horse Chestnut trees. This town is possibly the UK capital for Horse Chestnut trees! Though a great many of them were planted around here in the early 1960s there is an area of them, on what was a private estate many years ago, that are centenarians. They each produce 1000s of "candles" every year & are a sight to behold! :)

That's nice, Julia! I'd never heard of it before my brother gave it to us.

Just this week three flowers have opened on it & I've been taking lots of photos! The first one has dropped it petals today; they don't seem to last very long & the flower opens up fully in just 1 day.

We men are not usually reknown for smelling flowers so I deliberately got down & stuck my nose in all three flowers yesterday evening, there was a slight scent but I wouldn't be able to describe it. :(

This is so pretty.

It is pretty but not really tangerine is it?

Jane, that's exactly it! I used to really dislike anything orange coloured in the garden, but I now have Geum 'Totally Tangerine' all around the garden and that is orange isn't it?!!!

Thanks Josie, I think I may have to move it at some point as it's going to be too big for that non-pond area eventually!

Julia, I agree with your comment ... :o)

Sheila, last night my daughter (my I.T. support) tried to talk me through the iCloud process over the phone ... I'm still not sure of it though!

Josie, I love the plants they have chosen, so pollinator friendly.

Nice when people volunteer to help around their area. The planting looks great,& so good for the bees etc.

I like your new pale pink rose too.

Don’t worry Shirley, I also have to email my photos to the computer … not techy at all, but we “get there” somehow!

Yes, our lavender is proving popular too with bees and butterflies. Luckily we planted it next to our shady pergola sitting area, so we have front row seats!

I like these dwarf ones :-)

Mine is just starting to show a little colour, hope it looks like this

I think with Frans Hal it's how the colours are separate but too jazzy as you said, as we do have other things with these colours 😀
