Kordes Perfecta is a gorgeous blossom.. it really is.

But, that (IMO) pales compared to a perfect Paradise. I just hope that it opens to all it's promise.

I know that these are not roses, but my Purple New England Asters that I got at Home Depot for $2.50/pot (5 pots.. miscounted) are doing wonderful! :)

Heading into the back yard, only thing on the east side blossoming right now is the pond area. South side of the ponds.

Now to the West Side of the house. This is what it used to look like when we bought the house. This is looking northbound towards the garage door.

And this is what that area looks like now. This is looking south from that door in the above picture.

This is where my Outta the Blue, Pure Perfume, and others are at. Right now, all that's blooming is Wildfire. Here's a true-to-color picture. Wow!
