Garden

Pics of the front garden for you.  I have started on the fence but the pic I took of it wasnt very good at showing the colour.  Anyway it has gone from cream to a colour called 'French grey'.  It is the green colour used on the verandah and dog boards anyway.
 These roses when they open will be white iceburgs.


 This one which has the most amazing perfume is called 'Oklahoma'.


 Photo isn't that good as it is a little more pink than white lol.  Its called 'royal highness' and has a viburnum opulus in the background.

 These are cuban lilies.


 This rose is called 'seduction'.



 These two pics feature another beautifully perfumed rose called 'radox bouquet'.


 What would a cottage garden be without a lilac or two.




Now you must excuse the weeds in the newly spread rock and of course the half painted fence lol.  Might do some more painting once the day warms up just a little as it is cold out there at the moment.

"Rose Cottage" is right! Quite a nice collection. "Seduction" is my favourite.

Spring is well and truly underway if all these are in bloom already. Here the lilacs bloom a full month before the first roses, so it is interesting to see them at the same time!

Your garden is beautiful Katherine. It has recovered well after all the flooding. Laurel
