My sweetheart rose that covers my pergola and in the second photo you can see it working on covering the nearby redbud tree. It is also up into the orchid tree on the right. Next is my coreopsis in full bloom. My red knockout looks like I tweaked the color but I didn't. Next is the pink knock out by my front entrance.

With last night's wind and today's rain, there are not many petals on the sweetheart. They have been raining down for a week and I think the storm finished them off.
