Not sure if i already posted these---

My Carpet Rose grew huge this spring. it is quite old--I have had it, maybe, 20 years?
It used to be where my Knockout Rose now is. I moved it to a tight, little corner bed
in front of my tall, red perennial Hibiscus. Not much else there.....
BUT--it really filled out and now covers most of the bed....

--The whole carpet Rose--pretty!--with donner's Bunnera at the bottom right and Ric's rocks as edging.
--a close-up of the bloom clusters. These always bloom in clusters. the blooms are small--no more than 2".
--"Forever Susan" DL. Susan at work gave me this one....I sur won't forget its name!
--Stellas going to town. This is the corner of my "YUK" bed. You can't see it--
but I planted the Mock Orange in the very corner. The Heliopsis Daisies are just starting to bloom too.
--Davids yellow Foxglove--a bit bent out of shape with all these rains...
