This gorgeous purple rose, bred by David Austin, blooms reliably every spring despite being shaded and crowded. It only gives me a few flowers, but they are unusual and exquisite!
My 2020 plans for this plant are to try to keep the bindweed off of it and to try to clear away some of the plants that are shading it. I’ll also feed and prune it to keep it healthy and hope for more spicy purple blooms in the coming years.
