‘Simply Marvelous’ rose
‘Simply Marvelous’! is going crazy with blooms. (Yes, the exclamation mark is part of the name.) This wasn’t my favorite rose when I saw it in the catalog, but it’s quickly becoming one of the prettiest in the garden.
Sphinx moth
I saw a different Sphinx moth in the yard today. He was nectaring on the bottlebrush tree and let me take lots of pictures. I like the coloring on his back wings.
