September 02, 2008. August is over - I can return to the garden ;-)
Newly inspired by the promise of cooler temperatures and the prospect of a family visit, we spent part of the holiday weekend tidying up the gardens, and I managed to squeeze a visit to Point Phillip Perennials for the usual late-summer splurge. It's been dry recently, with just a single day of rainshowers in the past three weeks. The photo here was taken the morning after that rainy day, showing off how the 'Pink Knockout' rose we planted just this year is coming into its own. In fact, I've been pleased with all three of our rose purchases, which have lived up to their billing as being fairly disease-resistant and floriferous. I expect them to be even bolder and bigger next year. |
