I have 4 yellows in my collection and like all of them for different reasons. 'Scent from Above' and 'Golden Showers' I have as climbers/backdrops. 'Easy Going' and 'Eureka' I have more for contrast in a 'bed of many colors'. 'Eureka' likes to bloom in clusters and can be pretty spectacular at times. Here is a link that might be useful:

Lemon verbena is a large shrub in my part of the world - I call it a baby tree. And even here in the subtropics, it will die right down in winter. At that time, I cut mine right back almost to soil level as soon as it begins to lose its leaves, and it always comes back early in spring. Even with such heavy pruning, it's a sprawling, gangly, untidy-looking shrub, but I think it's pretty. I hope you have the real French Tarragon, and haven't been fobbed off with the Russian imposter, as happens so often. The French one is well-behaved - the Russian one is a thug, and virtually useless. You'll find out soon enough! The Russian one self-seeds, the French one doesn't. Your thyme could be the one to take over. It's usually well-behaved, but if any of the lower branches touches the soil, it could produce roots - hence a new plant. This is a good thing with thyme - you've always got babies coming along, even though the mother will die (or begin to look very tired) after 2-3 years. I suggest encouraging the plant(s) to propagate by layering - just pin the branch down gently in contact with the soil, using a bent piece of wire. You can encourage it to grow roots by giving it a gently little rub on the underside with some sandpaper.

Looks like Julia child, but I don't think she is a climber.

Sorry to be bumping old posts back up... I see this one didn't get many responses and the bloom hit me as one I used to have when I worked for the rose grower.. Have a look at Summer Fashion. Here is a link that might be useful: Summer Fashion @ HMF
