There&#8217;s almost no way to describe what our Asheville bed and breakfast gardens look like at this time of year&#8230;the climbing roses are showing their stuff and the peonies <span style=\"font-style: italic;\"><\/span> are just bursting forth!<\/p>\n<p>Every year I&#8217;m speechless (well, at least temporarily!) at the show that is going on around the garden. The colors, shapes and fragrances are something I think I&#8217;m prepared for&#8230;But every year it&#8217;s always even better than I remembered! And they don&#8217;t require a lot of work, so you can really enjoy them without feeling that you need to baby them.<\/p>\n<p>Climbing roses here at Abbington Green Bed &amp; Breakfast Inn include the white <span style=\"font-style: italic;\">r.&#8221;Iceland&#8221;<\/span>in<span style=\"font-style: italic;\"> <\/span>the Chartreuse Garden<span style=\"font-style: italic;\">, <\/span>the<span style=\"font-style: italic;\"> <\/span>tiny,pale pink multi-flowered <span style=\"font-style: italic;\">r.&#8221;Cecile Brunner&#8221; <\/span>in the Parterre Garden and the 19th century, dark pink <span style=\"font-style: italic;\">r.&#8221;Zephirine Droughin&#8221; <\/span>in the Lower Garden<span style=\"font-style: italic;\">. <\/span>And while these varieties can all rebloom during the Summer, the first flush in May is the super show that we wait for all year!<\/p>\n<p>And traditional garden peonies (<span style=\"font-style: italic;\">Peonia lactifolia<\/span>) are in the Lower Garden and the Cottage Garden at our Asheville bed and breakfast. The <span style=\"font-style: italic;\">p.&#8221;Duchesse de Nemours&#8221;<\/span> are the most fragrant and are white with creamy white centers. The <span style=\"font-style: italic;\">p. &#8220;Sarah Bernhardt&#8221;<\/span> are a multi-layered pink, and the <span style=\"font-style: italic;\">p. &#8220;Karl Rosenfield&#8221;<\/span> is a lovely magenta-red.
