Speaking of Climbing Roses......

and Jessaka was. At long last the rose Awakening on the front porch is blooming her head off.

It is a version of New Dawn. I can't detect any fragrance but it is a luscious pale pink which I can't seem to capture with either of my cameras.{{gwi:1111798}}

What a beautiful rose! I've often considered getting this one as I've read it repeats reliably (unlike New Dawn).

I really don't get a lot of repeat but this is its first year to really bloom well, so I will keep a watch on it this year.

That's interesting to know (unless I'm getting my roses confuzzled). I do like the late-ish bloom time though as my earlier bloomers got hammered by rains both this year and last.

Did you order it Glenda or find it locally? It is doing very well for you.

I think almost everything in the rose line has been ordered online. I got this from a nursery that has since gone out of business. I need to find time to take some cuttings of the roses and see if they will take.

Welcome back, Helen.
