Some exuberant combinations of perennials and roses in the island bed at the top of our garden this Summer.
Achillea ‘Blue Boa’ (it’s really purple not blue), R. Lady of Shalott, Lilies and Veronicastrum ‘Pink Glow' and R. Munstead Wood
R. Jude The Obscure and Salvia uliginosa
R. Munstead Wood and Veronicastrum ‘Pink Glow’
Rose Munstead Wood is a beautiful rich magenta here in the warmth of Summer and much darker and more crimson in early Spring and Autumn. I love the contrast of the voluptuous rosettes with the glowing spires of the Veronicastrums.
