Arbor in bloom
Posted: Jun 16, 2005 11:32 am
I don't usually have anything to post in here, but I think this arbor has done pretty well this year.
This is New Dawn rose with a grape-colored clem (can't think of the name right now. Ramona, maybe?). One rose and one or two clems at each end of the arbor. I'm still amazed these things grow: when we had the arbor installed, we discovered the ground water is only about 16" down in springtime. But I guess once these decided to take off, there was no stopping them! I did some major pruning on the rose this winter, but I think I need to do more.
