Climbing rose in my garden -today.

I just had to share this picture with you of a climbing rose in my garden. The roses look like they are off to a fab start this year.

Wow! You're a bit ahead of us Trixy, the buds on ours are only just starting to open, although it looks like a bumper year for them here too

I love roses - the smellier the better!

Wow - I have respect for someone who can keep roses alive! Years ago, after a busy exhibition, my boss gave all of us ladys a rose plant. It was the only time he'd ever given us anything to say thanks. Mine died - within a week. Oops!

Our neighbours house (old chap has just moved out) has roses in the front garden which have been there around 40 years and every year the whole garden is filled with beautiful smelling roses. Hopefully the new couple living there now will take as good care of them as he did. They are also in flower now.

That is a beautiful rose. I used to have a couple of rose bushes in my front garden, but they suffered with so much green fly, that I dug them up.

Just out of interest does anyone have experience of re-planting roses, as I would like to move a couple to the new house.
