Roses

We are making a change at the end of the garden beside the road.  Currently there a couple of Chamaecyparis lawsoniana "Lanei Aurea" a Silver Birch, Kolkwitzia and a Philadelphus.  They nicely block the view into the garden but were growing too far out onto the pavement.  Our fault for having too herctic a lives and not trimming them properly.

So they are being seriously cut back and a holly hedge being planted between them and the road.  Today we started on the task.  So why did I blip wild roses.  Well in among the Lanei branches there has been this Rose which appeared all of it own.  Probably from a seed in bird droppings.  This shot of some of the flowers seemed an appropriate record of our days work.
