Thanks so much! Good to be back into the swing of things. Went out and snapped a few more pics a while ago. 'Robina' is really showing off now.

'Time Zone' is nearby looking good.

Good to hear from you Neal. Your gardens are looking fantastic as usual.

The Time Zone and 'Macizo' both look like they'd be nice with Robina. How tall is Macizo?

Celeste, I'd say the tallest 'Robina' is just shy of 7'. They're in partial shade, and stand perfectly straight and tall- love that!

Thanks Susan

Jo Ann, the scent of Lilies wafting inside is one of my favorite things about summer.
