I love the coloration of the dead nettles.

Good looking flowers. What kind of rose is the first one? It sure is a pretty color.

High altitude and short cool summers.

Delicate little roses! Love them! Is dead nettle invasive? Surely is pretty too!

Hi the rose is some kind of shrub rose, small leaves, good fragrance, and winter hardy without protection I got it from Henry Field's a long time ago.

The dead nettle will spread, but I found it easy to control.
