    Big Grin I just love this time of the year where all around me when some varieties of our Crapes are blown-out with colour!!..I've been enjoying mine daily ..watching it fill up with blooms..I stood at the front door with the rains and saw the white petals flowing to the ground..looking like white snow as it hits the ground...

    It's so hard to try and describe the colour of Climbing rosa "Felicia"..she's a soft delicate pinky-beigy colour..her fragrance is very unique..not bad for just being planted as a baby back in fall '2006

    Jeanne..that's the first time I've ever seen white crape myrtles..usually they are pink/purple. Thanks for sharing with us. When do you ever sleep, all those plants to take care of? They are all beautiful. Wished you were my neighbor!

    That crepe is wonderful. It must be a 'Natchez' variety. That's the one I wanted for my new bed, however we wound up with a pink colored one called "Tuscarora".

    I can't believe that climber got that big that fast. Send some of that special stuff my way.

    All of the roses are beautiful. You are the reason I added roses and so many clematis to my gardens this year. Thanks for the inspiration.
