DyanesGarden, Have you grown your hardy gladiolus, 'Atom' over the winter in NY? I love that one, but have always dug and stored it. Perhaps I will leave a few in the grown next fall. I planted that same genista last spring. Love it so far. with and without blooms.

Kassia, luscious color on 'Rhapsody in Blue'

Ngam, nice collection of roses in those pal colors. I have to look those up, especially, 'Crown Princess Margareta'.

Rust, my hollyhocks have some this year too. I will whack back them as soon as they finish blooming and dig them out in the fall. I will move them to a new spot, far away from the central spot they now inhabit where the offending leaves won't bother me so much if they come up again with the rust.

Yesterday I did a bunch of pruning. More to do this week on all the spirea. Garden is full of new blooms. Finally getting rain over the 4th helped.

Lilium henryi is a favorite. Patti
