    My tomato patch has Blaze climbing roses all around the fence. They have started blooming, first one, then two and now there are more than a dozen. With all the buds there will be more than 100.
    Here is the first one.

    When they bloom closer together I will take more pictures.

    My blaze is loaded with buds also, but no blooms yet. They are so pretty.

    Maybe I should invest in a Blaze rose too Dooley as all of mine are ages away from flowering. What a beauty yours is and I look forward to seeing more photographs of her soon. :-D

    Nice rose. That reminds me I need to prune off a little winter-kill on mine. Just a few branch tips, I can see them better now that the healthy parts are greening up.
