Ok, now for the shrubs:
Leptodermis oblonga has been incredible. It looks similar to Common Lilac with lavender flowers and dark green foliage. The blooms are smaller clusters and the leaves are quite a bit smaller than Lilac, but it has bloomed the entire summer, and the leaves have held perfectly.
French Lace Weigelia was cut back several weeks ago and has rebloomed nicely. The foliage is bright green and soft yellow variegated, and frames the rich pink flowers nicely.
And now a sample of the roses. They are all still in full bloom:
New Dawn Climbing Rose has a large, pure white bloom.
So far the Drift Series has been living up to all of the claims. All of the varieties we carry have been blooming all summer and we have trimmed them up here and there only for a neater look in the pot. The faded blooms just fall off as the new buds emerge. They seem like a relatively maintenance free rose. The varieties we carry are Pink Drift (above), Red Drift, Coral Drift, and Peach Drift. They are all low-growing, compact groundcover roses.
The Carefree series have also worked well for us. Carefree Spirit is new for us this year and has a flower similar to Home Run with deep red petals and a pure white eye. It is a shrub rose and gets 4-5' X 4-5', but has small, shiny leaves.
