First a Sunflower
Rose bush 1, 2 original colors and the new one
Rose bush 2 - climbing rose I think the name was Pink Angel but I lost the ID tab and now they have gotten so dark they are almost red.
Rose bush 3 has no blooms now and most shoots with flowers are from the wild rose roots. When I get some I will add pictures.
Mandevilla Hybrid name "Sun Parasol".
More to follow in part IV
How did you miss me the first post - 4' tall, 6" wide and...well...BRIGHT

My wife says the loss of distinctive color is the root-stock reasserting itself. Our "Mister Lincoln" and "Peace Rose" have become a lot more "generic" with the years. By the way, my sensor has a hard time with reds and scarlets which have come out nicely here.

The one bush that has no blooms right now has runners from both the wild root stock and the hybrid graft so I get both types of roses on one bush, mostly in reds.
Orange and yellow can also give trouble, esp with solid color flowers where the light can shine through the petals. I tried a lot of shots, and several PP combos to get them to come out.
Beautiful set of images Robert.
They are beauties Robert.
