Climbing Roses!!

I LOVE THEM!!!

Any and all of them!

I have 2 New Dawn Roses,

I just killed the third one by moving it to a new location beside my chicken run, right before our hard freeze.

I could just picture it running up over the run and providing eye candy for me and a nice shady area for my hens to be shielded from the very hot afternoon sun.

Sorta killing two birds with one stone!

I have been looking for a replacement rose for just that same spot

and I am getting ready to paint my chicken coop.....(don't tell Leslie because I want it to be a surprise when I ask her to help me paint it ;-)

It will be the same Stone Grey tannish color of our house and garage.

I felt with that color that a yellow rose would look really well draped over the run.

Yesterday I purchased two Golden Showers Roses and planted them both there beside the run.

I can't wait til they take off.

I am going to plant a Jackmannii Clematis (dark purple) and a Henryii Clematis (white) beside these roses for a beautiful color show next summer!!!

I just can't wait!

Can you feel my excitement?

I am also very excited to share with you a great youtube video of "pegging roses"!

I never heard of it til tonight.

Please let me know if I am the only rose lover out here that has not heard of this.

I love climbing roses and have had the best luck with them of any roses that I have ever tried to grow, but I always felt that they needed support in order for them to flourish.

I have now been informed of other ways to grow climbers.

Watch out folks.....I might just get my rose garden that he promised me anyway!!!!

So Katie Barr the door!

I can stick a climbing rose anywhere!!!!

I have my wheels a turning now!
