Duchesse de Brabant

This is an old fashioned rose. It was first introduced in 1857.
It is very fragrant!

Notes from the garden...

Yesterday, I finished cleaning out around the Bee Balm and the Crype Myrtle. What a mess, layers and layers leaf litter. It took nine yard waste bags. I planted the final three Hostas.

Today, I transplanted the Snapdragons in the same bed as the Hostas. I weeded and the adjoining bed and added mulch. I made good progress on the veggie and herb bed. I had to stop due to a Thunderstorm. It did leave 1/2 of rain.

I went to Home Depot and picked up more pine bark mulch and some Salvias to finish up.  I hope!


Salvia 

 I have nine more to plant tomorrow.

Pink Cone Flowers
are doing great!
