ALOHA! My beautiful Rose

12 comments


I was thrilled when I purchased this little beauty in June last year the scent was to die for and its certainly not disappointing this year its put on so much growth. It is a bush rose from David Austin that will climb up to about 8-10ft.

After admiring my rose I took a little peek at what else was doing good and the clematis `Mr President ` together with Sambruscus `black lace` and a lupin are strutting their stuff especially as the clematis was drastically cut off to about 1ft earlier in the year to do some maintenance on the shed. The other climber to the left of the `president` is Clematis Winter Beauty and will flower in November.

Now this I like but haven`t a clue to what it is, would be obliged if anyone could enlighten me.

and last but not least I couldn`t resist including the Hydrangea petiolaris showing her blooms which there seem to be much more of this year.

Lovely plants Stroller. I don`t know exactly what your unknown plant is but its leaves look similar to a Polymonium. Your `Aloha` is lovely, mine is about four years old now and I`m training it as a climber. I must say yours looks much better than mine at the moment. :o)

Your plants all look very nice and healthy too, yes Aloha is a beauty, wish I had one. I agree about Polymonium.

All the fotos are just perfect and I envy you that wonderful bush rose, wish I could smell it. Sorry no good at identifying plants, whatever it is- looks pretty good to me. You certainly have the magic touch with growing your plants. Congrats.

You wont regret it Ladybug as I say the smell it lovely. I`m sure the weather we are having at the moment sunshine and showers will soon send your plants rocketing, that is if you are getting the same weather in Tyne and Wear.?
