Once
again this lovely combination of Henryii clematis and Zephirine
Drouhin thornless rose ... covering the railing of the porch.
The
first two years it didn't bloom at all, then it had two blooms, four blooms
the following year and 8 the next ... now it's to the point that I don't
need to count ...
And
this plant is relatively new in this location - it's thornless, and I've
replaced the fierce Constance Spry along the rail ... this rose is nearly
too fragrant - lovely outside, but too strong to cut and bring inside.
Zephirine
along the rail,
Constance Spry
covering the
front of the
house (she's
the slightly
darker pink
rose to the
right of Zephrine
- darker foliage
too).
