Kristi, just thought I should mention the Kordes perfume-fest Parole, aka Buxom Beauty. Was introduced to the USA in 2008, so it may have gone under your radar. Apart from its names (Jailbait/Dumpling - yeah, good work there, Kordes Marketing Dept), this deep cerise pink rose is pretty near perfect - no spray requirements, beautiful high-centred flowers with substantial petals (HUGE blooms in cooler weather), nicely productive with a fragrance that is really intoxicating and waft-y, richly sweet but sophisticated. No cold cream or myrrh. And it cuts like a dream. I'm up to six of these. They're my battery hens for vase filling. Just sayin'.

At this time removing spent blooms to make the plant look better and prevent seed production is probably all that you would need to do. When the weather cools in the fall and the foliage yellows I remove all the foliage down to about 3 or four inches for the winter. Al

An update. The vast majority of the garlic mustard is gone...what a job that was! My DH even began to help me, it was that bad. A photo of the plant that looked like lamb's ear or rose campion. The grey colour doesn't seem to be as predominant. Aconitum (Monkshood) I don't think this is Trollius because there aren't any buds. Centaurea montana next to a poppy. The 'oregano plant' One small bed before and after photo. There are six beds this size and a large bed about 20' wide by 40' long, plus about 15 shrubs in their own beds and all of these beds were overgrown with garlic mustard. You can see one edge of the large bed in the photo below and a few of the shrubs in the background.

1. Appears to be another lavender. Rub and sniff for confirmation. 2. Aquilegia vulgaris 3. Astilbe 4. Hebe 5. Hibiscus syriacus 6. Rhododendron Everything except your lavenders and the Hibiscus seem to be suffering from lack of water and I'm guessing your soil doesn't suit the Rhodie. Are you in the South East? Were the pix taken during the hot weather last week?
