Peggy Martin and La Marne Roses Make a Pretty Picture April 25, 2015

The La Marnes and the Peggy Martin are the same color pink, a happy accident on my part.  A less happy accident was letting my Verbena Bonariensis grow up right in front of the Peggy Martin and partially block this beautiful climber from full view.  I'll dig them up after they finish blooming.  Peggy Martin has a profuse bloom in the spring and a lighter bloom in the fall.  I have read that she blooms intermittently throughout the growing season after she gets more mature.  La Marnes are heavy bloomers throughout the growing season, but the flowers fade to almost white in the dead of summer.
