June 26 2008

Outside our living room window, at the corner of our deck, I have a climbing rose that I don’t pay a lot of attention to. I did notice the other day that there were lots of green buds on it and then quickly forgot about it again.

This evening I happened to look out the window and was surprised by a beautiful display of large red flowers! (I don’t think they are usually this large or abundant.)

In this little corner I have an obelisk that I purchased earlier in the spring, on which a _ vine is growing (one of the seed exchange items. (Thank you to whomever shared this. It is starting to climb!!)
