I think people need to think of roses as flowering shrubs. They can add so much color and greenery to anyone’s landscape. Hopefully more gardeners will rediscover roses and their benefits to a perennial bed.

Just searching the web on the topic of Hummingbirds and saw your post. Love your pictures. I was just on a tour of the Fordhook Farms owned by George Ball president of Burpee Seeds and Heronswood. Anyway, during my tour around his gardens I saw an area he had setup for Hummingbirds (He calls it Hummingbird Alley if you want to see some pics from there), just amazing, so now I am doing some research on setting up a garden of my own.
If you ever have a chance and are in the area, you have to visit that place - I think they have a few open houses each year.

Robert,

I sent you an email with pictures of possible plant matches.

If you would like to pursue this any further, you can send me a picture of
your plant.

I will upload it to this post and encourage site visitors to identify it from
your picture.

Willing to assist.
Greeny

Comment on Different Types of Hosta Plants by Robert Blount

I cannot find anywhere what I am looking for. The best description I can give is that the leaves are that of a bush tyoe, green/ribbed type. The flower on my plant is pink with a tip of black on the end. When blooming the flowering part looks like a pine cone upside-down with the pink petals coming out standing straight and tall and when fully exposed, the top tips over slightly.
I have been told it is a “screw pine,” or a “hummingbird,” or a “butterfly bush.”
I have looked up everything and still looking to no satisfaction.
Is there someone who could possibly help?
Thank you for your time.
Robert Blount

If you love birds and want help them out during the winter months, plant some roses that produce Rose Hips, such as the Rugosa roses.

Rose Hips provide important nurishing food during the winter for birds. You will have lots of birds visiting your garden if you provide rose hips from your rose bushes.
If you want more information on roses and rose hips, please visit my web site

Always get a hose that is longer than you need. So many times I hear of people who buy a hose only for it not to reach the full stretch of the garden.
