Garden Goodies

I've been away for almost a month from the end of July and well into August, so my garden has been neglected this summer.
 
To make matters worse, August has been a mess weather-wise : maximum temps at around 20C and a lot of rain.
 
As you can imagine, my garden was far from thriving upon my return...well, except for the grass :)
 
Yet, there are a few things I can still pick up from the garden and I am surely enjoying every single one of them.
 
Here's what I brought inside today (plus a half-ripe tomato that I forgot to include in the set-up)

Colours of the Same Rose

There is this tea hybrid in my Romanian garden whose name I ignore.
Although I'm not a fan of teas, I enjoy this old bush and its floriferous nature.
This bouquet is a joy to to the eye and nose
