Plant of the day

On a gray day, the Cleome (Spider flower) really shines and today I was asked a few times about this plant while working in the rose garden's annual border. You get a big bang for your buck with this plant. It's an annual with a long bloom time and just one of the fantastic flowers planted by Sarah in the rose garden's annual border.

It's been a constant bloomer while this border has grown and changed. (Pictured below as it was blooming on June 16 and July 14.)
