Cindi - These are my guesses for the roses:
I had Silver Mound artemesia in my pond area before, dug them all up & transplanted them as they were taking it completely over! Mine, according to the tags, were only supposed to get 12-18". These damned things are over 3' across. I'll take pics tonight. 6? 5? of them have covered a 16' section completely. I planted Blue Hill Salvia mixed in with Homestead Purple Verbena (supposed to be good to zone 6.. and I mulched the crap out of it) on the backside of one of the ponds (the waterfall portion) and planted the Blue Moon & Blue Paradise phlox alongside the pond. There's blue plumbago, "blue chip" campanula that lines the front, Blue star Amsonia in the center (didn't bloom this year, but did grow nicely). I will be planting more Agastache Cana in the back as they grow huge and smell wonderful. Lining the outside walls as this area is against the house & a privacy fence is a bunch of blue irises. I'll also probably be putting more Blue Butterflies delphiniums in too.
Can you tell I like blue? LOLLLL
If your club offers Melody Parfumee, GET IT. OMG get it get it get it get it. It's one of the BEST roses for scent I have.. not to mention is just drop-dead gorgeous. Has to be in my top 4 favorites (I think it's actually my 2nd favorite rose).
