Very nice effect, but I would not plant six roses for the look when two would do! You just shorten the canes on established roses and set them more horizontally to encourage flowering.

Also, you definitely are not a tea drinker! DON'T put your pinkie up when drinking tea. It is impolite.

I love Whitney Farms products, particularly their potting soil. I look for it everywhere. Occasionally I find it and snap it right up. Good that Scott's is branching out to give customers what they want in an ecologically responsible manner.

Gaura; definitely. I sell tons of it at work. It is a lovely plant!

Not a McKana's Giant, for sure. It is the old-fashioned Granny's Bonnet or double flowered type of (Aquilegia) columbine. It could be Tower Pink.
