The unseasonably relocated roses that I had been so concerned about for the past month or so continue to surprise with more growth and bloom. So do a few other species. These first three happen to be from Tangly Cottage Gardening. The following two happen to be white. The last happens to not be of horticultural orientation.
1. Canna ‘Stuttgart’, along with a few other fancy potted Canna, unfortunately needed to be relocated from the deck that they inhabited at work. However, it seems to be happier after relocation, and makes larger and more ornate leaves, which is what it is grown for.
2. Persicaria amplexicaulis ‘Firetail’ bloomed lightly but on time for early summer, and then bloomed again before the original bloom faded completely. The secondary bloom is only now fading, with a backdrop of duckweed and watercress. (This is an older picture.)
3. Hesperantha coccinea, crimson river lily was not expected to bloom because it was so dinky when it arrived late last winter. I thought that its bulbs would need to mature for a year or so before they would be mature enough to bloom. Apparently, it wastes no time.
4. Albizia julibrissin, silk tree blooms white instead of pink, although, because it blooms on top of its high canopy, not much of it is visible from the ground. It finished blooming already, but some minor pruning recently revealed a few of these aberrant white flowers.
5. Rosa spp., rose is another of the few roses that were not expected to bloom after their unseasonable relocation. It seems to be a climbing type, with long and limber stems, and trusses of small flowers. I am impressed that it not only survived, but is growing so well.
6. Heather fails to be as impressed by these developments that I find to be so surprising.

I didn’t know about the Albizia with a white bloom. Thanks for sharing.

Although white is my favorite color, I sort of doubt that white Albizia is as pretty as typical pink Albizia. Pink fades to a sort of cantaloup color before fading to tan. White just gets grungy. The bloom on this particular tree is too high to see.

I like the look of the white Albizia. I have never seen one, pink or white, before. Persicaria ‘Firetail’ was the first Persicaria I ever planted in my old garden, so thanks for the reminder. It would probably do well in my new garden too.

The Persicaria is one of two cultivars here from Tangly Cottage Gardening. Together, they have grown like weeds to displace other genuine weeds, so perform nicely. Albizia julibrissin used to be a very common tree here, and can self sow. No one knows if ours was planted intentionally or grew from seed.

‘My’ cat?! She is a cat, so is too independent for that.

That’s a great Canna leaf! It’s hard to find interesting Cannas here, unfortunately…at least at the retail level. My roses are all re-blooming nicely as well; they must like the cooler nights.

That particular Canna came from Tangly Cottage Gardening in Ilwaco in Washington. Almost all of my Canna are from gardens of friends and colleagues. Only my first, ‘Australia’, and my last, ‘Alaska’, were purchased by mail order. Both are definitely worth their investment.
