Put your red flowers here too if you want.

I have so many red but here is General Gallieni - a red tea rose that is so lovely as there are many reds in the bloom and a little glimpse of 'hot lips' a nice salvia under the General
and the Dark Lady - a lovely rose almost overcome by weeds thistles in particular as high as her - sigh - and it is right in front of my house - maybe tomorrow its owner will remedy the weeds
and the loveliest pink tree called Tosca - a Forest Pansy to 5 metres - a Cercis I think is the type. It has pink blossoms, purple heart shaped leaves in summer and the best autumn foliage. My love Tosca the hen is buried beneath this tree so it will always be called Tosca. I miss her. She was such a great mum and would have loved these 6 new babies.

My basic weeding rule: if they grow in rows they're flowers;
if they don't they're weeds.
