I love the aquilegias Bess. I have 'Lady Marmalade' & 'Lady of Shalott' roses which are beautiful, apricot/orange, scented & tough so are worth a look.

Bess I had a peachy pink rose once called Compassion. It was lovely but I haven't got it now. It died when I moved.
This is New Dawn with a bee.

Lovely Eli. . New Dawn is a much better rose than Compassion. Compassion is not self cleaning and so keeps the roses hanging on even when they die. New Dawn has not got quite as many petals as Compassion, but is prolific and beautiful.

Bess have a look at R. Glenfiddich. It is not a tall rose, but really worth having. It is planted en masse at Glenfiddich Distillery. I have grown it and may do again now that you have reminded me about it.

Oh I like 'Olive Sukyer' Eli - very elegant. My Mum and I both have 'Olive' in our names so may be biased!

This Lonicera has small dainty flowers, but it's a vigorous climber and I have to keep cutting it back.
I don't know it's name.
