2016 another Part of my Seven Sisters plant... the plant was massive growing over my log pile. It was 20' L x 15' H x 10' W and sooooo fragrant! All I had to do is to come home from work and I would smell hundreds of flowers in bloom each night when I would open my car door! Such a treat.
I entered this in some rose shows for the Detroit Rose Society many years ago and won a few ribbons. I saved one ribbon, I will post it when I find it.

Full view of my rose bush and how it had taken over my log pile... hah hah... you cant see the hole rose bush... it was well into the yard on both sides! Shot straight up into the sky!
