Spring has sprung, though it’s still chilly in Charm City. One or two flowers popped up and, together, they made a nice arrangement this evening. Peonies, baptisia, irises, rhododendron, and dusty yarrow in back. And my favorite, Zéphirine Drouhin roses in front. Love their hot pink color, their thornlessness, and the fact that they grow in sun or shade. Highly recommend this fragrant climber, introduced in 1868, because it requires little hand holding.
