I really do admire Woburn Abbey. The poor thing got annihilated in early spring by some Large Beast, with all the tall canes being broken off at the graft and the entire plant laid just about parallel with the ground. But... she keeps on trying...

For something that has been annihilated it is looking lush and bushy and with lots of buds still to open!

Thanks, Spider Lily and Pokie!

(It's acatually only a couple of feet high, poor thing

).

Miss BTW, why don't you give it a go - they got heaps of sun for six months of the year here, a bit of burning only on the worst days...
