In the meantime, go check out the northwest section of the garden, to especially see our Gentle Hermione rose. I encourage you to step into that bed and smell the lovely fragrance of this rose. It’s amazing! Several bearded Iris varieties are also in bloom, and our Sandpaper Verbena is loaded with vibrant royal purple blossoms! 💜
