Summer rose

This is one of my favorite roses. It’s called Breath of Life and it’s a climbing rose.

The plant grows right at the entrance to my garden and when it’s in bloom I can see it’s lovely flowers from my kitchen window, the enclosed back porch and of course as I begin walking out my back door. What a lovely rose to greet me!

It blooms regularly throughout the summer so I almost never see it without roses. In fact this stubborn plant has a perfectly formed dead rose at the tip of one of it’s branches right now … even thought it’s absolutely freezing out! I’m surprised the rose hasn’t fallen off yet.

BTW sorry this post is so late. I’ve been sick all weekend. Sore throat and or swollen gland in my neck, sore ear, stuffy nose, massively bad headache and a grumbley stomach. No, I’m not a happy camper!
