Two things I swore not to try and grow when I moved to Florida, orchids and roses. Well . . . now I've got both, what happened??

Sunny Knockout is my favorite color, pale yellow fading to white as it opens. Easy Does It, (coral orange) is another own-root disease resistant variety I'm trying in a blazing sunny area out front where nothing has been growing. Now that I have well water, I can afford to water that area, yay! Hoping the pentas interplanted with them will give a bit of shade relief in the height of summer. Yup, roses like some shade in summer here, like a lot of plants that say 'Full Sun' on the labels.
