Breathtaking, Mike. Hanging out on this rose cubit is going to be my undoing! I keep adding more names to my list of must-haves and don't have enough years of life left to acquire them all, not to mention the small matter of money. Gosh, those are gorgeous. I liked your driveway analogy with the CIs!
I have a New Dawn on an arbor in back and the thorns are so ruthless and brutal that I'm thinking of moving it and putting a Zephyrine Droughn in its place. The only other rose I have with thorns as bad is Gertrude Jekyll, but she smells so devine, I can take a few thorns here and there. I've just learned to be careful with her.
Lovely roses. I know Lexington BBQ well!
