I know I have already put out photos of our rambling rose but I just can’t resist this last set of photos as it reaches it’s peak. This rose is called paul’s himalayan musk and was given to us as a moving in gift eight years ago. It was about three foot high back then and was a rose that I had long admired in a friend and neighbours garden. She told us that it was fast growing and would soon cover our arches and she was right.<\/p>\n

I am taking loads of photos now because although beautiful and also full of a lovely perfume, it doesn’t last long and will soon be gone. Other roses in the garden are less spectacular but will last until October when we get the first frosts.<\/p>\n

Therefore I feel we need to celebrate this spectacular rose as it reaches it’s peak so bare with me as I show it off one more time.<\/p>\n

I also meant to photograph the chicken’s rose but have left it a bit late and it’s going over. However the girls love the rose petals as they drop and I thought this was also a good photo to show how good our perpetual broody, Topaz, is looking.<\/p>\n

I also have some of the rose indoors as I had to prune a few bits so that we could walk under the arches. Once it has finished flowering we will prune it as we now have to duck under the arches. Despite this we are fully enjoying this rose at the moment.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
