Then it got even sicker as the sun started to beat down on it. I thought that it was a goner for sure! Then in late summer after we got some rain and it rebounded. Roses can be a bit fussy, but sometimes they surprise you.<br />P.S.

One of the things on my 'to do' list is to take some rose cuttings from a hot pink shrub rose bush I have and make new plants (saw a programme on TV how to do this).

So glad you clematis came back - and I hope your other one will, too.<br /><br />Karen - You grow so many plants, I can't believe you can't grow roses. Or, maybe you just live where the climate is right for blackspot.

I have no talent with roses, even the Knockouts quake with fear when they see me approaching them in garden centers. Since it's just plain cruelty on my part to bring a rose home with me, I will instead enjoy them from afar and appreciate their beauty in your garden. <br /><br />I really enjoyed your previous Karenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18368318730124533690noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7485248345006754419.post-46202587659589070322011-09-29T08:17:33.506-07:002011-09-29T08:17:33.506-07:00Very pretty.

I just hope my other will come back next year from the root.
