In it's once a year show (that's an 8' fence). Thinking of taking it out, so thought I'd take a quick pix.

Lovely

I drove down to Ann Arbor (50 minutes) this morning to have breakfast with my sisters, my older one's birthday today. I took a BIG bouquet of daffodils from our garden to her. I LOVE this time of year

It's beautiful smileys/smile.gif. Are you taking out the rose vine or the fence?

Thinking of taking out the rose vine...

The fence is fairly new. When it came down in a storm and I had it rebuilt didn't reattached the vine to it because I was thinking of taking it out. Believe it or not, I cut the width back by half a couple of months ago. It is pretty when it blooms, but that's basically 1 month out of the year at most. Keep thinking I should pull it and put something in there that's ever blooming.

I have brown fingers so I'd hang on to the rose vine for my life smileys/smile.gif

Ok, you talked me into letting it stay for now, but pruning at least is in it's future.

Give it a good haircut and plant something everblooming in front of it.
