ArbutusOmnedo 10/24Updated That's interesting, Cecily. I was just up in San Francisco and thought "My god, I've never seen so many Impatiens in my life." I felt like I saw an Impatiens sodenii on EVERY block. I'm not a big fan of New Guinea Impati...

jerijen(Zone 10)Updated In the afternoon, this little niche goes into shade. But to be frank, in the worst of the heat, I don't expect my roses to remain dewy and perfect. EYE don't remain dewy and fresh in real heat -- much less my roses. :-)
