Sunday Flowers

The clematis have reached the top of their trellis and are tumbling over onto the fence.

Our helianthus are in bloom early – they’re usually late summer/autumn flowers.

It’s lavender season! I love the scent.

We have fabulous roses, courtesy of the folks who lived here before. This one’s the size of a salad bowl and the scent is wonderful.

Wow! You really are a couple weeks behind me! My lavender needs trimmed back now, and my clematis that looks very similar to yours, is done blooming.
I’m jealous of the roses. I love their smell, but haven’t been able to grow any other than the hardy shrub roses, which are nice, but not so much known for their scent.

Those are beautiful flowers, and beautiful pictures of them. I’m envious – no flowers is one drawback to living in an apartment, although there are a number of plants that live here, such as bamboo, aloe, and greenery I have know idea what actually are.

Vince, if you post pictures, I bet someone would be able to identify them.

Beautiful pics; the colors really come out well. I especially like the first in the series, the clematis.
