Colette is gorgeous! The spirea brings out her warmth, and I love the ...rose I think, behind her, echoing that bright beard!
I've been thinking on why I've had a creative block with blending these tones, especially after having admired your pics and gardens, and Sherry's too. I think I was seeing your landscapes as very California, an extension of the natural landscape of that unique zone. It's like subtly shifting your focus, and seeing things previously unnoticed.
