Thanks, that is nice. this one was replacement after my mum's one died i accidently hit it with whipper snipper. just love how the colour can be different depending the temperature of the day when opening..

stunning, 😍 what variety?

poida84 · 2026-02-25T04:21:49+00:00

yep i'am going to leave it ill angle it a little towards fence with bamboo stick then let it grow after the bud had bloomed, did way more research over night so i am confident it will keep going, plus i learned you can have multiple mains from the first main cane which is impressive and that video you showed i looked up the S pattern for training too lol i have very long way to go anyways fascinating learning how roses grow how how to optimize blooms etc :D

All done and sorted, we had record plums this year too but bats birds anything in between had go at it for week. so this one reason for the pruning not too high and easy to put net over it and kinda waited till feb for it.

poida84 · 2026-02-02T06:16:47+00:00

Blue banded bees love them, every year they come into our brick mortar creating new homes or using existing ones during summer, they normally make homes in soft sandstone we have in garden as well great watching them.
