If I'm Not Out in the Garden. . .

I might have missed 'Brother Cadfael' in bloom! This is a beautiful David Austin rose from England. I know, I know, I was whining about not being able to grow roses the other day, but this is an exception! I also read some of the Ellis Peters books about Brother Cadfael. I might go to the library and get some of those out again! Repeat bloomers especially roses are a great plant in the herbal garden. We finally are having summer in the 'Burgh! See you later! Hope you are staying cool where you are!

Looks like you are doing an excellent job with the roses. All they truly need is sun, soil, water and some one to truly appreciate them. You have it all!

I have lost track of the number of days over 100 - over 47.... looking forward to winter and the color green in the landscape (someday).

Thanks so much for your kind words, Cindy! I need to pay a little more attention to all of them and I don't always do that. We have been having Seattle weather until just these last couple days. I don't know if I could handle over 100 degrees. I would be looking forward to winter and green in the landscape.
