Celebrating the unexpected survival of Salvia guarantiaca Black and Blue, which is coming back after having been trampled by a neighbor's escaped hog. Yes, I've got to make sure the fence gets tightened up around the garden!

Old clusters of agaves had survived and multiplied in the untended garden over the years. I'm incorporating them into the new plantings as I go along.

Good planting weather! One rose bush Archduke Charles, a small pot of Greek oregano, and dwarf agapanthus Peter Pan all went into the ground this morning. Now they are being watered in by the rain. 💙

Its reputation for beautiful winter blooms was one reason I decided to plant the old tea rose Safrano. It's beginning to come along nicely. After all, it was a major florists' variety in the nineteenth century.

Here's a bud from the old tea rose Safrano. With our chilly nights, it's holding on a long time before opening! Lovely colors in both bud and new foliage.
