2+ Years in the Making



After two years of giving this climbing peace rose love and attention it has finally given me a rose! Now last year it didn't produce because of a late frost and the year before because it was new, but this year I was losing patience. I finally told the bush that if I didn't see any roses by July it would lose it's prime spot to the azelia bush. Well that was all it took. I now have a perfect rose. Granted there is only one and no sign of other buds. Perhaps I will plant another already blooming rose bush elsewhere in the garden as competition or inspiration.

I would like to add that I have yet to have another bloom since and am ditching the plant next year!
