Roses

Our Peirre de Ronsard is flowering! It is their first year so we're excited. There's one either side of the garage doors. We know nothing about roses so it's great to get some results, even if they're not perfect.

Also in flower is the Iceberg climber, the Goldbunny climber and the Scarlet Carpet Rose.

The Cecile Brunner's not looking so good with the root stock overtaking. I liked the dark red flower on the root stock and was going to leave it there but Sandy tells me that's not a good idea. She says the root stock will take over and I won't be left with any Cecile Brunner at all. (I bet she's never tried it though!) I guess I'll prune it. What a pity I can't keep both!
