She joined my yard last spring. She was on sale at Heirloom Roses when I visited there and I bought her for a whole dollar!
She's only a year old, so she's still rather small
the blooms are tiny but perfect. Also - Bonica has no fragrance. I broke my rule for her!
Since we’re walking around in the yard:
Sally Holmes is getting buds!
Those buds are my favorite thing about Sally Holmes
Lastly, take a look at Fantin Latour. She’s enormous! I’m really going to have to prune her this year.
Fantin has been growing here for about 6 years. She was a tiny little bare root plant when she first went in the ground.
Tell me what’s growing in your neck of the woods.
Kudzu.
You have some lovely flowers.
Poison ivy.
BAH. So sorry. That stuff is eeevuhl.
Beautiful!
