August Roses...

 Young Lycidas is now flowering beside The Lady of Shalott. I love the contrast!

And in the front garden...second flowering...

And other shots this month...

Mid August shots...

Slight variations of the same area...

 

Burgundy Beauty...

 These beauties are still going strong! 

Can't remember the name but it was the very first rose I planted in the garden when we moved into our house 9 years ago.

Pontederia Cordata...

Pontederia Cordata with geranium Rozanne and montbretia in the background.

 

The Lady of Shalott...

 The very first Lady of Shalott rose to bloom! It's so beautiful! It arrived last week, along with Young Lycidas from David Austin Roses I've planted them side by side for the colour contrast and can't wait to see them in bloom together!

I chose this rose not only for the gorgeous colour but because The Lady of Shalott is my favourite Waterhouse painting! 😀

Summer Beauty...

 

Summer's Crescendo...

 

August Garden!

 

This shot is from June though...
