    Lovely show of colours, but I particularly like the lilies. :D The last one is what we call "oriental". Does it have a divine scent? The other once are asiatics, and beautiful ones too.

    Nice, nice!
    I love the nasturtiums... I planted some long ago but since there was no trellis, I couldn't enjoy them like you can.
    A new idea for me!
    :)

    (that lychnis is quite a reseeder over here... that's what i like and don't like about it - the good thing is the small plants can be easily pulled out and replanted somewhere else )

    Even the bee loves the Sunflowers as much as I do.

    Yes, Tuber Roses are grown from bulbs. I bought a packet from this nursery last year (http://www.tntuberoses.com/ )and it bloomed last year itself. I dug these up before winter and stored them indoors.

    I particularly love tuber roses as they are very abundant in my native country,India.

    Hi Tina---So in addition to looking lovely and smelling divine, they remind you of home?!? My goodness I can't think of a better reason to have them in your garden!
