I’ve been thinking about adding to my rose garden for a couple of months now
and this weekend I bought a new rose for it. Here are the roses I looked at
and the rose I finally bought.
Once I saw this rose it was a serious contender but I had my heart set on an
orange rose. I still might get this rose, too.
This is ‘Tuscan Sun’ and it was on my cart but……
I liked this two tone rose so much but still looking around for a perfect orange rose.
This is the rose I bought. It is ‘Leonidas’ a hybrid tea. Altho I loved the ‘Tuscan Sun’
rose, this rose won my heart over with it’s soft yellow center. It is a cutting rose
and disease resistant. While I was at the garden center, I took photos
of other flowers and plants I thought were beautiful.
I think this is a fancy hibiscus.
Fall will be here soon and I’m attracted to all the fall colors like in this sunflower.
What do you think? Do you like my choice or do you have a personal
favorite that I haven’t seen or one of these. Maybe you are tired of
my roses, and want to see something else. Next week I will be back
in the Shabby Chic Garden with new additions.
