My 3 year old cutting of Felicite Perpetue has been in the corner planted for 2 years now. She grew and grew and taught the neighbors to stop beating the fence with their cars. I noticed today she had lost of few leaves and looked a tad dry.

And then I realized I had not put a dripper on the supply line that runs in front of her (I was scared she would like it too much and skipped on purpose thinking I would just give her some more water monthly but forgot because the drip line was there) We might have given her a drink at some point this summer, but neither mom or I remember doing so. She has been doing all that growing on just the rain she got months and months ago.

I have a few different ones that I have planted around the edge of the property. I really like some of the Barbier roses since they are Tea mixes and there is more of a fall rebloom chance.
